As you can see, I have fallen behind schedule with the readings.
These chapters tell how, although some of the Jewish people were removed from their homeland to Babylon, others remained. Jeremiah the prophet was among those who stayed. Factions arose among those who remained, and they fought to the death. After their numbers had dwindled they came to Jeremiah, promising to do whatever the LORD revealed for them to do, but when Jeremiah spoke in the LORD’s name, they broke that promise. So the remnant people are described as utterly faithless.
