Judah’s Sin and Punishment - “The sin of Judah is inscribed with an iron chisel— engraved with a diamond point on their stony hearts and on the corners of their altars. Even their children go to worship at their pagan altars and Asherah poles, beneath every green tree and on every high hill. So I will hand over my holy mountain— along with all your wealth and treasures and your pagan ...
Jul 3, 2013 · The people's desire for foreign deities had no limits; Judah was not a passive victim who had been unwittingly seduced by a charming Casanova, but she sold herself to others without remorse. She was like a prostitute who waited alongside the road for male clients among the trading caravans, the many altars to Baal and others on the "bare heights" proving her wanton adultery (v. 2).

Jan 16, 2013 · The prophet condemns the southern kingdom, Judah, for rejecting "the law of the Lord" and being led astray by "lies" (v. 4). He seems to speak of idolatry, as other texts combine rejecting God's law and following false deities in a manner that anticipates and echoes Amos 2:4 (Deut. 8:19; 2 Kings 17:15; Jer. 11:10; Ezek. 20:16).
Judah’s Broken Covenant. 11 The Lord gave another message to Jeremiah. He said, 2 “Remind the people of Judah and Jerusalem about the terms of my covenant with them. 3 Say to them, ‘This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: Cursed is anyone who does not obey the terms of my covenant! 4 For I said to your ancestors when I brought them out of the iron-smelting furnace of Egypt, “If ...
