Jeremiah 1-3, Psalm 116-117
from Commuter Bible · host John Ross
Jeremiah was a young man serving as a priest when the Lord called him and set him aside to be God’s chosen instrument in prophesying against the nation of Judah. Judah had seen the fall of Israel after their centuries of wickedness and idolatry against the Lord, both figuratively and sometimes literally prostituting themselves with idols and cult prostitutes. They worshipped false gods on hilltops and under trees, as was the custom in the surrounding nations, rejecting the God who loved them, provided for them, and protected them. These idols were a broken cistern, promising life and refreshment only to come up empty.Jeremiah 1 - 1:10 . Jeremiah 2 - 5:06 . Jeremiah 3 - 14:21 . Psalm 116 - 21:41 .
