Prophets of the South: The Destruction of Jerusalem

Review Questions What “super-power” was the major threat during the prophetic ministries of Isaiah and Micah? For which good king did Isaiah serve as “advisor”? Which king initiated a reform during which the Torah was found? Approximately how many years passed between that event and the fall of Jerusalem to the Babylonians?

Jeremiah “Let the one who has my word speak it faithfully” (23:28)

The Political Circumstances (Jer 1:2-3) From the 13 th year of Josiah (627) to the 11 th year of Zedekiah (586) – oracles not in chronological order –Jehoahaz –Jehoiakim –Jehoiachin Babylonians under Nebuchadnezzar were in control of Judah – Jer 34:6-7 – only Lachish and Azekah left Israelites were deported to Babylon in 605 and 597 prior to Temple’s destruction (586) – this is why Jeremiah wrote to people already in Babylon Egypt was a tempting alternative for some – Jer on the flight of the remaining people to Egypt

Exile to Babylon

Jeremiah’s Difficult Calling The initial calling as son of Hilkiah (1:1) Called before he was born (1:5) Called to stand in opposition to the Religious Establishment (1:17-19) Continued opposition: –From kings (32:3 – Zedekiah; 36:1-32 – Jehoiakim) –From false prophets and priests (20:1-6 – Pashur; 23:9-40; 28: Hananiah) –From the people (11:18-22 – plot to kill him) –Jeremiah’s feelings about his ministry: grief and dismay (4:18-22); despair (20:7-18); apparently ineffective ministry for 23 years (25:3)

The Imagery in Jeremiah’s Messages Linen belt (ch 13) – symbolizing binding the people of Israel to God Potter’s house (ch 18) Breaking a jar in Hinnom Valley (ch 19) Basket of figs (ch 24) – the good figs were those who had gone to Babylon with Jehoiachin; the bad ones were the ones remaining under Zedekiah Wearing a yoke (ch 27) – symbolizing subservience to Nebuchadnezzar of Judah and all the surrounding peoples

The Content of Jeremiah’s Messages The disobedience of generation after generation would bring the curses of the covenant (Lev 26) Exile and judgment –Captivity in Babylon for 70 years (25:11) –The cup of God’s wrath ( 25:15-17; see also Jer 13:13; 49:12; 51:7; Isaiah 52:17-23; Ezekiel 23:32-34; Psalm 60:3; and the seven bowls of God’s wrath – Revelation 16-17) Promises –Return from exile and restoration (29:10-14) –New covenant (ch 31 quoted in Hebrews 8)

Additional Information about Jeremiah Baruch was Jeremiah’s scribe Jeremiah’s words contain prophecies for other nations (chs 46-51) Lamentations was ascribed to Jeremiah – Chapters 1-4 are acrostics –Chapter 5 is not – representing complete absence of order –Note 3:21-26

Habakkuk Literary forms in the book –Questions (complaint) of the prophet and answers from God “How can evil go on unchecked?” God will raise up the Babylonians! “How can God use a nation so vile?” The wicked will not last. Evil is self-destructive but the righteous must live in faithfulness (note Galatians 3:11) –Psalm of God’s appearing in judgment (3:1-16) and the prophet’s faith (3:17-19) Lessons

Obadiah Background and date –probably around the time of the fall of Jerusalem –Parallels with Jeremiah 49:9 Messages –Doom on Edom –Day of the Lord for all nations –Restoration for Israel

“Clefts of the rock” (Sela)

Zephaniah Background – descendant of Hezekiah; during time of Josiah Messages –Comprehensive destruction on the Day of the Lord in conjunction with specific condemnation of Judah and Jerusalem –Condemnation of surrounding nations –Restoration
