JEREMIAH 25

GOD’S WRATH WILL BE POURED OUT ON JUDAH 

By the first year of King Nebuchadnezzar’s reign, Jeremiah had been warning the people of Judah for twenty-three years that disaster was coming. The people of Judah did not listen to Jeremiah and turn from their idolatry.

God’s plan for Judah was to allow Babylon to take them into captivity for seventy years, leaving the land desolate and destroyed. God’s wrath is described as a cup of wine, from which Judah and surrounding nations would soon drink.
