Dr. Nunnally directs our attention to Israel’s pending exile (587 BCE). Jeremiah elaborates on Israel’s shame and covenantal disobedience. God’s expectations have been clearly understood. “If you disobey, I’ll withheld the rain. If you obey, I’ll send the rain.” Betray the covenant and “exile” is the result.
Jeremiah 2:37; 2:16; 3:1; 14:3:3-4; 2 Samuel 15:30; Job; Leviticus 26; Psalm 140:5-9; Deuteronomy 24:1-4; 2 Kings 22:8
