Jeremiah 31:5

King James Version (1769)

5 Thou shalt yet plant vines upon the mountains of Samaria: the planters shall plant, and shall eat them as common things.
Untruth

Common misinterpretations of Jeremiah 31:5 include viewing it solely as a literal agricultural promise for immediate material wealth without the broader context of Israel's repentance and restoration from Babylonian captivity, or applying it exclusively to modern political Israel as a guarantee of unending prosperity regardless of spiritual fidelity, ignoring its prophetic role in foreshadowing messianic hope and spiritual renewal rather than isolated farming success.

Truth

Jeremiah 31:5 prophesies a future restoration for God's people in Samaria, symbolizing renewed prosperity and security after exile, where they will plant vineyards on the mountains and freely enjoy their harvest as everyday blessings, reflecting God's faithfulness in reversing judgment with abundance and peace under the new covenant.
