J E R E M I A H. CHAP. VI. In this chapter, as before, we have, I. A prophecy of the invading of the land of Judah and the besieging of Jerusalem by the Chaldean army ( Jeremiah 6:1-6 ), with the spoils they should make of the country ( Jeremiah 6:9 ) and the terror which all should be seized with on that occasion, Jeremiah 6:22-26 . II. An account of those sins of Judah and Jerusalem which provoked God to bring this desolating judgment upon them. Their oppression ( Jeremiah 6:7 ), their contempt of the word of God ( Jeremiah 6:10-12 ), their worldliness ( Jeremiah 6:13 ), the treachery of their prophets ( Jeremiah 6:14 ), their impudence in sin ( Jeremiah 6:15 ), their obstinacy against reproofs ( Jeremiah 6:18 ; Jeremiah 6:19 ), which made their sacrifices unacceptable to him ( Jeremiah 6:20 ), and for which he gave them up to ruin ( Jeremiah 6:21 ), but tried them first ( Jeremiah 6:27 ) and then rejected them as irreclaimable, Jeremiah 6:28-30 . III. Good counsel given them in the midst of all this, but in vain, Jeremiah 6:8 ; Jeremiah 6:16 ; Jeremiah 6:17 . return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verses-1-8" class="com-number"
