15 And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.
COMMENTARY: The promise of restoration to repentant people is a common one in the prophets, and Jeremiah turns to it often. Pastors means Israel's leadership which, though now false (cf. Ezek. 34:8-10), will yet be composed of men after God's own heart (cf. 23:4), serving under the Great Shepherd Himself (Ezek. 34:11-31).
