Commentary— Tyndale Open Study Notes (plain English)
30:1–33:26 These four chapters are often called “The Book of Consolation,” a high point in Old Testament revelation. In contrast to the many messages of judgment that Jeremiah delivered to his people, these messages are filled with hope and point to a marvelous future restoration. 30:1-24 This series of messages is mainly positive, with only two verses carrying a tone of judgment (30:23-24). They speak of the beneficial effects of the destruction of Jerusalem and of the Exile.
