Exegesis
The compound divine name YHWH Tseva’ot {יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת | Yəhōwāh ṣəḇāʼōt} ‘LORD of hosts’ and the title Elohei Yisra’el {אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל | ʾĕlōhē Yiśrāʼēl} ‘God of Israel’ combine martial authority with covenant identity.
In context — Jeremiah 19:15
Thus says the LORD of hosts , the God of Israel : Behold, I am bringing upon this city and upon all its towns all the disaster that I have spoken against her, because they have hardened their neck so as not to listen to My words.
