Wesley's Notes for Jeremiah 35:8

35:6 Jonadab - Jonadab of whom we read, #2Kings 10:15|, was the father, that is the progenitor of the Rechabites, at three hundred years distance.

35:7 That ye may live - Jonadab cautions his sons by a thrifty, sober, laborious life, to which they had been bred, in keeping flocks, to avoid any thing which might expose them to the envy or hatred of the people amongst whom they were come to sojourn.

35:10 Tents - Moveable habitations, which they could with little labour remove to feed their flocks.
