Jeremiah 51

Message: The Lord Says

Time: Judgment on Babylon

What the Lord is Saying: Babylon's land will be emptied; fall down slain in the sheets; land full of guilt / Israel and Judah not forsaken

God:

  • made the earth by His power
  • established the world by His wisdom
  • stretched out the heavens
  • He makes lightning for the rain
  • He brings forth the wind (from storehouses)

Jacob and Israel are set apart; God will plead Jacob and Israel's cause and take vengeance for you

Man is stupid, without knowledge; his images are false

Promise: This is a very detailed look at the destruction of Babylon. [But, isn't that what we want, that is, the detail of the destruction of a corrupt people; don't we want to see the evil of others exposed and then their suffering detailed]
