Albert Barnes Commentary Jeremiah 17:4

"And thou, even of thyself, shalt discontinue from thy heritage that I gave thee; and I will cause thee to serve thine enemies in the land which thou knowest not: for ye have kindled a fire in mine anger which shall burn for ever." — Jeremiah 17:4 (ASV)

The verb rendered “discontinue” is that used for letting the land rest (Exodus 23:11) and for releasing creditors (Deuteronomy 15:2) in the sabbatical year. As Judah had not kept these sabbatical years, she must now discontinue the tillage of God’s inheritance until the land had had its rest. “Even yourself may mean and that through yourself,” through your own fault.
