  • SCRIPTURE Jeremiah 29:1, 4–7 These Are the Words of the Letter
    SCRIPTURE Jeremiah 29:1, 4–7 These are the words of the letter that the prophet Jeremiah sent from Jerusalem to the remaining elders among the exiles, and to the priests, the prophets, and all the people, whom Nebuchadnezzar had taken into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon. 4 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, to all the exiles whom I have sent into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon: 5 Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat what they produce. 6 Take wives and have sons and daughters; take wives for your sons, and give your daughters in marriage, that they may bear sons and daughters; multiply there, and do not decrease. 7 But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the LORD on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare. MESSAGE - Living in Babylon We’re continuing to work through the time period of Jeremiah, though not chronologically. As you will recall, Judah had strayed from its roots and had become like the other nations – no longer relying on God but playing politics on the world stage, seeking advantage and wealth through alliances and treaties. Due to some double dealing, they had earned the wrath of king Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, and since God had been relegated to the background by his people, he remained there to allow Judah to reap what they had sowed. Rather predictably, Nebuchadnezzar rolled in with his army, removed the manipulative and ambitious king Jeconiah from his throne, replaced him with a more docile ruler, and returned to Babylon taking with him many of the educated class along with a large number of skilled tradesmen and artisans.

  • COMMENTARY Title: Vision—Deploy the Church Text: Jeremiah 29:4-14
    COMMENTARY Title: Vision—Deploy the Church Text: Jeremiah 29:4-14 Topic: Missions Theme: God’s Sovereignty in the Midst of Uncertainty1 Main Idea of The Text: In Jeremiah 29:4-14, God encourages the people of Israel to recognize that He is in control of their lives. Despite the setback of captivity, life is to continue as normal. They are to put down roots in Babylon for seventy years and to carry on as if nothing happened. The day would come when God would allow them to return, but for now, they are to just live there, make their homes there and build their families there. In the midst of their captivity, God offers them hope and encourage in perhaps the most quoted verse in the entire book of Jeremiah. 29:11 is perhaps the most quoted (and most misinterpreted) verse in the Bible. Yes, God has a plan for us, but we must look at the complete context of this verse before we offer it as a “catch all” for every scenario in life. In context, God was offering encouragement and hope in the midst of a very bleak and dire situation. He would bless Israel as He promised, but they must obey Him and seek to know Him and do His will with all of their hearts. Truths in the Text: vv. 4-6: God instructs the children of Israel to make a home in Babylon. They are to build homes and establish families. They are to grow in number and allow life to be as normal as possible.

  • Jeremiah Dr. R. Wade Paschal
    Jeremiah Dr. R. Wade Paschal Jeremiah, p. 2 Dr. Paschal takes us deep into the book of the prophet Jeremiah. One of the strengths of these lessons is the connections that are made throughout the Bible that both place Jeremiah in the Old Testament context, and also thematically as a whole. In the materials, you will find timelines, backgrounds, and cross-references that provide you the teacher a wealth of knowledge in which to teach from. There are more materials in each lesson, then you could possibly teach in a normal session, so you the teacher will have to make tough decisions on what to cut out in the materials. As with most teaching, one of the hardest decisions that you will make is what not to say or teach. Dr. Paschal also provides some questions that you can use to help people go deeper into the text. If you are looking for an orderly book, Jeremiah is not it, so the thematic based approach that Dr. Paschal uses is very helpful to understand the big concepts. Please familiarize yourself with the Historical overview in lesson one, which I found to be extremely helpful. Here is an overview of the lessons. Lesson 1: The Life and Times of Jeremiah, Part One Lesson 2: The Life and Times of Jeremiah, Part Two Lesson 3: The Life and Times of Jeremiah, Part Three Lesson 4: The Prayers of Jeremiah Lesson 5: The Failure of Leadership Lesson 6: The Problem of Sin Lesson 7: The Return of Israel after 70 Years Lesson 8: Messiah and Future Salvation Jeremiah, p.

  • Jeremiah 29:5-7: a Deuteronomic Allusion
    JEREMIAH 29:5-7: A DEUTERONOMIC ALLUSION hy ADELE BERLIN University of Maryland In his letter to the Judean exiles in Babylonia, Jeremiah exhorts them in the following words: Jer 29:5-7 inpi niJ::n c•J:J i1•?1:i1 C'1Vl inp .pio-nx i?:::nn nm iYtm i:Jwi c•n:J 1l:J .itnon-?xi C1V"1::.l11 n1l:J1 C'l::l m1?ni C'IUJX? 1ln C::l'n1lYnxi C'IUJ C::l'l:J? :ioi?1V:J •:J 'il ?x :i1Y:J i??on:ii i11J1V c::mx •n•?lil "11UX i•y;i ci?w-nx 11V"111 . ci?w c::i? il'il' Build homes and settle, plant gardens and eat their fruit. Take wives and beget sons and daughters; and take wives for your sons and give your daughters to husbands. and they will bear sons and daughters: and multiply there and do not diminish. And seek the well-being of the city to which I exiled you, and pray for it to the Lord, for in its well-being will be your well-being. The message is clear: the exiles are to establish their own community in Babylonia, prepare for a long stay there, and hope for the continued prosperity of Babylonia itself, of which the Judeans may partake. Unlike the "false prophets" who view the exile as temporary, Jeremiah foresees a long period of exile and wants to institute measures that will preserve the community that must undergo it. There are few textual problems in these verses.

  • Jeremiah “A Dying Nation”
    Jeremiah “A Dying Nation” I. Introduction to Jeremiah the Book Jeremiah is the 24th book of the Old Testament and the second of the Major Prophets. .Jeremiah has 52 chapters, and by word count is the longest of the prophetic books. It chronologically follows the book of Isaiah. Isaiah watched the fall of Israel to Assyria and prophesied of a better day when Messiah would suffer for the sins of man, and ultimately reign supreme. Jeremiah watched as Judah fell to Babylon and prophesied of a remnant returning to Israel after seventy years of captivity. This captivity was both punitive and corrective. During the captivity, Israel would be cured of its idolatry and the way would be paved for the coming Messiah. Jeremiah’s prophesies follow approximately sixty to eighty years after Isaiah and during the reigns of Josiah, Jehoiakim and Zedediah. Jeremiah is best understood when seen in light of 2 Kings 22-25 and 2 Chronicles 34-36. At sixteen years of age, young King Josiah began to seek the Lord and by age twenty, he purged Judah and Jerusalem of altars, images and high places. At twenty-six he began a Temple restoration project to restore worship of YHWH and insight revival in the people. It was during this time Hilkiah found a copy of the law of God. When it was read to King Josiah, he repented of personal sin and called the nation to turn to the Lord. Thousands, in Israel devoted themselves to the Lord. This would be the final revival in Israel’s history.

  • Chronicles and the Reception of Lamentations As Two Modes of Interacting with the Jeremianic Tradition?1
    http://scriptura.journals.ac.za/ Scriptura 110 (2012:2), pp. 176-189 THE JEREMIANIC CONNECTION: CHRONICLES AND THE RECEPTION OF LAMENTATIONS AS TWO MODES OF INTERACTING WITH THE JEREMIANIC TRADITION?1 Louis Jonker Old and New Testament Stellenbosch University Abstract A connection is often made between Lamentations and Chronicles in terms of the ancient Rabbinic tradition of Jeremianic authorship of Lamentations. Second Chronicles 35:25 is normally quoted as the instigation of this tradition, since this verse at the end of the Chronicler’s Josiah account connects Jeremiah to the singing of laments (qînôt). Recent scholarship does not attempt to settle the authorship issue in Lamentations, but rather shows how the later reception of Lamentations engages the Jeremianic theology in order to explain some difficult passages in this book. My contribution will be a comparative study in which the different modes of interacting with the Jeremianic tradition by Chronicles and the Lamentations reception will be investigated. The presence of Jeremiah as the most prominent of the classical prophets in Chronicles (in 2 Chronicles 35 and 36) will be studied in comparison with the more recent theories on the engagement of Jeremianic theology in the reception of Lamentations in Persian and later periods. Key Words: Lamentations, Jeremiah, Chronicles, Authorship, Reception History Introduction When discussing the authorship of the book of Lamentations, standard commentaries on this biblical book normally refer to the later tradition which links the prophet Jeremiah to Lamentations. These discussions normally include a reference to 2 Chronicles 35:25 as a possible link between Lamentations and Jeremiah.2 This link is normally constructed with reference to the fact that the Chronicler indicated in the death notice of King Josiah that the prophet Jeremiah sang a lament (Polel form of the verb qyn, the stem which is related to the noun qînah/qînôt, ‘lament/s’) after this king’s death.

Call God’s people back to their first love. Tells them to abandon their wickedness, to Oh, that My people would listen to Me, That Israel would walk in repent. The word “repent” is used over 100 times by My ways! I would soon subdue their enemies, And turn My hand Jeremiah; to turn back.

  • Fact Sheet for “Take the Long View” Jeremiah 52 Pastor Bob Singer 03/17/2019
    Fact Sheet for “Take the Long View” Jeremiah 52 Pastor Bob Singer 03/17/2019 Read Jeremiah 52 After 6 months we have come to the end of the book of Jeremiah. Jerusalem is in ruins. Solomon’s temple is destroyed. Thousands have been taken to Babylon. Israel is no longer a nation. The book of Jeremiah ends here. 2 Kings ends here. In fact, much of 2 Kings 24:18-25:30 and Jeremiah 52 are word-for-word identical. (2 Kings 25:22-26 also records the murder of Gedaliah, the governor installed by Nebuchadnezzar, by members of the royal family. – cf. Jeremiah 40 & 41) 2 Chronicles also essentially ends here. We’ve seen a lot of ancient history. We’ve seen a lot of politics. But what has there been for us in this book? At first we are reminded of those two great verses from the NT. ESV 2 Timothy 3:16-17 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work. Does this ancient book have anything to say to us in the US… in Oregon… as Christians in a post-Christian world? You bet it does! Step back from this book for a moment and see the broader picture. Jeremiah’s ministry began during the reign of one of the great kings of Judah. ESV Jeremiah 1:1-3 The words of Jeremiah, the son of Hilkiah, one of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, 2 to whom the word of the LORD came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign.
