This week we'll look briefly at Ezekiel 17-31, 2 Kings 24-25, 2 Chronicles 36, Jeremiah 21, 32-34, 38-40, 52, and Lamentations 1. As I mentioned last week, Ezekiel and Jeremiah both lived to see their prophecies of Judah's exile come true. This was a hard time to endure and difficult to have to witness. It [...]

This week we'll reflect on Jeremiah 27-28, 31, 37-38, 49-52, 2 Kings 24, 2 Chronicles 3, 36, and Ezekiel 1-16. I wrote last week about Jeremiah's prophecies of Judah's exile into Babylon and the unpopularity of that message.

This week's passages are Jeremiah 7-20, 22-24, 29-31, 35, 49, Daniel 1-3, 2 Kings 24, and 2 Chronicles 36.

Passages from the various prophetic writings this week all deal with God's judgment of sin - the sin of his own people who have chosen to disobey His law and worship [...]
