Jeremiah 32 is the thirty-second chapter of the Book of Jeremiah in the Hebrew Bible or the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. It is numbered as Jeremiah 39 in the Septuagint. This book contains prophecies attributed to the prophet Jeremiah, and is one of the Books of the Prophets. In this chapter, Jeremiah redeems a piece of property belonging to his family and explains the significance of his act. [1]
The original text of this chapter, as with the rest of the Book of Jeremiah, was written in Hebrew language. Since the division of the Bible into chapters and verses in the late medieval period, this chapter is divided into 44 verses.
Some early manuscripts containing the text of this chapter in Hebrew are of the Masoretic Text tradition, which includes the Codex Cairensis (895), the Petersburg Codex of the Prophets (916), Aleppo Codex (10th century [a]), Codex Leningradensis (1008). [3] Some fragments possibly containing parts of this chapter were found among the Dead Sea Scrolls, i.e., 2QJer (2Q13; 1st century CE [4]), with extant verses 24–25. [5]
There is also a translation into Koine Greek known as the Septuagint, made in the last few centuries BCE. Extant ancient manuscripts of the Septuagint version include Codex Vaticanus (B; B; 4th century), Codex Sinaiticus (S; BHK: S; 4th century), Codex Alexandrinus (A; A; 5th century) and Codex Marchalianus (Q; Q; 6th century). [6]
The order of chapters and verses of the Book of Jeremiah in the English Bibles, Masoretic Text (Hebrew), and Vulgate (Latin), in some places differs from that in Septuagint (LXX, the Greek Bible used in the Eastern Orthodox Church and others) according to Rahlfs or Brenton. The following table is taken with minor adjustments from Brenton's Septuagint, page 971. [7]
The order of Computer Assisted Tools for Septuagint/Scriptural Study (CATSS) based on Alfred Rahlfs' Septuaginta (1935), differs in some details from Joseph Ziegler's critical edition (1957) in Göttingen LXX. Swete's Introduction mostly agrees with Rahlfs' edition (=CATSS). [7]

The parashah sections listed here are based on the Aleppo Codex, and those in the missing parts of the codex (since 1947) are from Kimhi's notes, [8] marked with an asterisk (*). [9] Jeremiah 32 is a part of the "Twelfth prophecy (Jeremiah 32- 33)" in the "Consolations ( Jeremiah 30 -33)" section of Prophecies interwoven with narratives about the prophet's life ( Jeremiah 26 -45). {P}: open parashah; {S}: closed parashah.
This chapter is structured around the purchase of a family field by Jeremiah. [10] The New King James Version divides this chapter into the following sections:
"The tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah" was 588 BCE. [12] The 18th year of Nebuchadnezzar's reign is dated from his ascension which was marked by a victory at Carchemish. [13] At this time the siege was ongoing against Jerusalem starting from the 10th month of Zedekiah's 9th year ( Jeremiah 39:1) until the city was penetrated 18 months later, in the 4th month of Zedekiah's 11th year ( Jeremiah 39:2).
