Gilbert House Fellowship #176: Jeremiah 3-7


THE HEARTBREAK of Jeremiah at the prophesied destruction of Jerusalem is evident in this week's reading: My anguish, my anguish! I writhe in pain! Oh the walls of my heart! My heart is beating wildly; I cannot keep silent, for I hear the sound of the trumpet, the alarm of war.
Jeremiah 4:19 (ESV)

We discuss God's condemnation of the faithlessness of the kingdom of Judah, which is startling coming as it did within living memory of the reforms of the good king Josiah.

Here are the links on the tophets — burial sites for sacrificed children — that Derek mentioned:
