After finally being able to give a comforting message (“Stay here in Judah and don't go to Egypt.”), the people not only went to Egypt but took Jeremiah with them. (Or did he go along willingly?) Perhaps he thought that in Egypt the Lord's message to stop worshiping idols would have some traction. But again, alas... No. Then Jeremiah has a special message for his faithful secretary, the official named Baruch. I find this message very interesting.
For the last two days we heard the wisdom of a father to his sons. Today Lady Wisdom speaks.
Yesterday we finished the Resurrection Chapter, and today we see glimpses of the life of the early church through Paul’s final words.
