Jeremiah 3, Jeremiah Series
One of the most important aspects of life is relationships. They are the most rewarding and challenging aspects of life. We become deeply invested in others, but when there is a breach in the relationship, particularly in our marriage relationship, the question comes to mind: is it possible to start over again? Are there terms we need to consider before moving forward, and what are those ingredients to make reconciliation possible? As we look at the nation of Israel and Judah, God’s people, we can learn how relationships can come to an end or be reconciled. What are the ingredients to make that possible? The devastating impact of Israel’s sins leads to a broken covenant. Just like in marriage, apart from certain powerful changes needed, the relationship will dissolve. It is shocking to discover that in Jeremiah 3, God divorces the nation of Israel and warns Judah of a similar fate.
