Jeremiah 1,2,3 - Daily Summary
Hello! This is the first daily post regarding the book of Jeremiah.
Jeremiah 1:19 verses
Jeremiah 1 is the story of Jeremiah being called by God. God called him, and he was a priest in Anathoth, Benjamin. The Lord predestined Jeremiah to become a prophet (verse 5). Jeremiah tried to deny it because he was young, but the Lord insisted. The Lord told him that a disaster will come from the north - Babylon.
Jeremiah 2:37 verses
Jeremiah 2 is about the eventual disobedience of Israel to God. This is a lament over the decline of Israel's obedience and devotion, its holiness. However, idols are now being followed. We cannot fall the same fate, we must stay in the right path. We mustn't forsake God.
Jeremiah 3: 25 verses
Jeremiah 3 is about a similar theme: Israel's disobedience to God and departure from Him towards idolatry. We will be judged if we do evil. Reject idolatry, adultery, disobedience, and faithlessness. This is what Jeremiah 3 is about.
Merry Christmas!
