Wesley's Notes for Jeremiah 20:2


20:1 Immer - The course of Immer was the sixteenth course of the priests, #1Chron 24:14|. Pashur was his son, that is descended from him.

20:3 Not called - God's meaning was, not that he should by men be no longer called Pashur, but that his condition should not answer that name Pashur, which signifies, a flourishing priest; but Magor - missabib, that is, fear and terror on all sides.
