In this chapter we have,
I. The general inscription or title of this book, with the time of the continuance of Jeremiah's public ministry (v. 1-3).
II. The call of Jeremiah to the prophetic office, his modest objection against it answered, and an ample commission given him for the execution of it (v. 4-10).
III. The visions of an almond-rod and a seething-pot, signifying the approaching ruin of Judah and Jerusalem by the Chaldeans (v. 11-16).
IV. Encouragement given to the prophet to go on undauntedly in his work, in an assurance of God's presence with him (v. 17-19).
Thus is he set to work by one that will be sure to bear him out.
