Jeremiah 31

okay, look... i'm going to bottom line it for you... this chapter, like the others, has far too much going on in it to do some quick blog entry about. And this isn't exactly the place to write the three or four books that could be written on the themes of this book...

but I'm tellign you that there's good news here. There's a new covenant promised here, that teh Book of hebrews will tell us is in Jesus... Romans 9-11 will tell us we're grafted into the promises made to Israel. Early Romans will tell us that we are israel who are made God's children by Faith. We are heirs of this covenant, because we believe in Jesus.

We are inheritors of this restoration, comfort (and the disicplines that came before it)... We are comforted and restored by God, in Christ. We are not under the covenant of Moses (although it is indispensable in our instruction and discipleship), but we're in a new one... this is IT.

So think about that.
