Jeremiah 35:7

7. tents— (Jud 4:17).

live many days—according to the promise connected with the fifth commandment (Ex 20:12; Eph 6:2, 3).

strangers—They were not of the stock of Jacob, but sojourners in Israel. Types of the children of God, pilgrims on earth, looking for heaven as their home: having little to lose, so that losing times cost them little alarm; sitting loose to what they have (Heb 10:34; 11:9, 10, 13-16).
