Jeremiah 24

the last chapter should give anyone who wants to speak on behalf of YaHWeH, you know? Look at that. That generation had a whole slew of folks who just wanted to speak prosperity and comfort from the Lord, but He wasn't on that message. Wow. That's very "today" to us.

The good figs:
the people who were to be taken captive (including those who obeyed Jeremiah and surrendered to King Nebby) would come into a blessing and protection. Their posterity would be established...

The bad figs:
The stiff necked rebels who were going to resist Nebby to the end, and ultimately flee to Egypt with Jeremiah as a hostage, were going to get creamed...

That's the chapter.

do you appreciate that Jeremiah preaching this during a seige was a criminal act?
