What Does Jeremiah 32:20 Mean?
Jeremiah reaches back to the Exodus—the supreme sign of God's power and redemptive will. The miracles in Egypt are still remembered 'unto this day,' their impact enduring. But God's wonders are not limited to Egypt; they have appeared in Israel and among other nations, making God's name and reputation known throughout the earth.
By invoking Exodus history, Jeremiah implies a parallel: if God brought Israel out of Egypt with signs and wonders, He can surely bring them back from Babylon. The God of the Exodus is the same God speaking now, with the same power to deliver.
