Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 39. - One heart, and one way. Unity is always given as the "note" of the ideal, Messianic period (comp. Zephaniah 3:9; Zechariah 14:9; John 10:16). That they may fear me forever. This reminds us of a phrase in the exhortation in Deuteronomy 4:10, as the next clause does of Deuteronomy 6:24.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(39) I will give them one heart, and one way.--The previous verse has described the restoration of Israel in the old familiar all-inclusive terms--"They shall be my people, and I will be their God" (Exodus 6:7; Deuteronomy 14:2; Hosea 2:23). Here a new feature is added. The prophet, in his vision of the future, in place of the discords of the present--some serving Jehovah, and some Baal and Molech; some urging submission to Babylon, and some intriguing with Egypt--sees a unity in faith showing itself in unity of action. The hope of Jeremiah has never yet been realised, but it has appeared as with a transfigured glory in the prayer of the Christ for His people that they "all may be one," even as He and the Father are one (John 17:21-23), in the prayer of the Apostle, that all might be joined together "in the unity of the faith" (Ephesians 4:13). And that prayer also waits for its fulfilment, and receives only partial and (to use Bacon's phrase) "germinant" accomplishments. "For ever" represents the Hebrew all the days.
