Thus saith the LORD of hosts; The broad walls of Babylon shall be utterly broken, and her high gates shall be burned with fire; and the people shall labour in vain, and the folk in the fire, and they shall be weary.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
The verse 58 is found in chapter 51 of Jeremiah. The Jews are commanded to leave Babylon so as not to participate in its sin or perish with it. Seraiah must read the scroll and throw it into the Euphrates as a sign that Babylon will sink and not rise again. The final act turns the written prophecy into a visible symbol of the irreversibility of imperial judgment.
Meditate on this verse and share your reflection or spiritual experience with the community. Your comments will enrich everyone's learning.
