Jeremiah's prophetic ministry spanned a crucial and turbulent period in the history of Judah, from approximately 627 BC (the 13th year of King Josiah's reign) until after the fall of Jerusalem and the destruction of Solomon's Temple in 587/586 BC. He may have continued to prophesy in Egypt until around 580 BC or even as late as 561 BC.
Jeremiah's prophetic ministry spanned a crucial and turbulent period in the history of Judah, from approximately 627 BC (the 13th year of King Josiah's reign) until after the fall of Jerusalem and the destruction of Solomon's Temple in 587/586 BC. He may have continued to prophesy in Egypt until around 580 BC or even as late as 561 BC.
This period saw the reigns of several kings of Judah: Josiah, Jehoahaz, Jehoiakim, Jehoiachin, and Zedekiah.
Jeremiah's prophecies primarily warned Judah of the impending judgment from God due to their idolatry and disobedience, which ultimately led to the Babylonian conquest and exile. He also offered messages of hope for a future restoration and a new covenant.
31 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD,
That I will make a new covenant
With the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers
In the day that I took them by the hand
To bring them out of the land of Egypt;
Which my covenant they brake,
Although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD:
33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel;
After those days, saith the LORD,
I will put my law in their inward parts,
And write it in their hearts;
And will be their God,
And they shall be my people.
34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying,
Know the LORD:
For they shall all know me,
From the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD:
For I will forgive their iniquity,
And I will remember their sin no more.
Jeremiah 31:31–34.
Don't quit now. There's more that is relatable to a new heart (life) that both Jeremiah and Ezekiel and Joel address. ALL these things are prophecies TO and FOR Israel and they DO NOT include non-Hebrew Gentiles.
16 Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
17 Son of man, when the house of Israel dwelt in their own land, they defiled it by their own way and by their doings: their way was before me as the uncleanness of a removed woman.
18 Wherefore I poured my fury upon them for the blood that they had shed upon the land, and for their idols wherewith they had polluted it:
19 And I scattered them among the heathen, and they were dispersed through the countries: according to their way and according to their doings I judged them.
20 And when they entered unto the heathen, whither they went, they profaned my holy name, when they said to them, These are the people of the LORD, and are gone forth out of his land.
21 But I had pity for mine holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the heathen, whither they went.
Ezekiel 36:16–21.
22 Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for mine holy name’s sake, which ye have profaned among the heathen, whither ye went.
23 And I will sanctify my great name, which was profaned among the heathen, which ye have profaned in the midst of them; and the heathen shall know that I am the LORD, saith the Lord GOD, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.
24 For I will take you from among the heathen, and gather you out of all countries, and will bring you into your own land.
25 Then will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you.
26 A new heart also will I give you, and fa new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh.
27 And I will put my spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes, and ye shall keep my judgments, and do them.
28 And ye shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and ye shall be my people, and I will be your God.
Ezekiel 36:22–28.
And speaking of Joel:
27 And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel,
And that I am the LORD your God, and none else:
And my people shall never be ashamed.
28 And it shall come to pass afterward,
That I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh;
And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
Your old men shall dream dreams,
Your young men shall see visions:
29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids
In those days will I pour out my spirit.
30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth,
Blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.
31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood,
Before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.
32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered:
For in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance,
As the LORD hath said,
And in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.
Joel 2:27–32.
These three men, prophets the LORD sent to the Hebrew people. Each prophesy of a restoration of Israel as God's holy people when He shall gather them from where God scattered them and bring them back into their own land. This exodus back into their own land was carried out first by Hezekiah and later, through Ezra. Of these passages God speaks of a New Covenant He will make with the House of Israel (ten northern kingdom tribes), and the House of Judah (two southern kingdom tribes.) Gentiles are NOT included in any of these prophecies, EXCEPT that God is AGAINST the Gentiles and will pour out a judgment against these Gentiles who cheered God's judgment upon His people Israel and Judah. Joel speaks of God sending His Spirit to Israel in a more personal and profound way and He gives a time frame when this will happen:
23 Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God:
For he hath given you the former rain moderately,
And he will cause to come down for you the rain,
The former rain, and the latter rain in the first month.
24 And the floors shall be full of wheat,
And the fats shall overflow with wine and oil.
Joel 2:23–24.
This is telling of the time of the harvest when the Holy Spirit shall be given to the Hebrew nation. It occurs at the time of Israel's Feast of Harvest also known as Pentecost, fifty days from Passover, the same Passover in which Jesus as lamb of God was sent to die for the sins of the Hebrew nation according to and under the Law of Moses. AND no Gentiles were under the Law of Moses and God made NO COVENANT with the non-Hebrew Gentile nations. BUT where is all this talk of non-Hebrew Gentiles becoming saved come from? God sent these three prophets of God TO Israel, and these prophecies were spoken TO Israel.
True, born-again Christians first love when they become saved - and I am addressing Christians who are the seed of Abraham biologically - love God's Word. When you became born-again chances are you went to Bible-Believing churches where the pastor (or teacher) expounded to you what is written in the Bible. My experience was that I had pastors and teachers who taught FROM OUT of the Bible. I followed along in my own Bible and NONE of them added things that were not written in the text. These were faithful men of God who themselves went to colleges and universities where they learned the exegetical way of Biblical interpretation and NONE of them added to the Bible text nothing that wasn't written in the text.
BUT there are members here who DO ADD to the Bible things not written in the text, such as that Gentiles are included in the Abraham Covenant and the Mosaic Covenant. BUT there are no such things found in the Bible.
God promised to scatter His people AMONG THE GENTILES but also prophesied to gather them up and return them to their own land and when this happens God promises Israel a New Covenant and to give His Spirit TO THEM resulting in their salvation and deliverance from sin through the body and blood of Israel's Savior, Messiah, and Lord, the lamb of God born of the tribe of Judah for the sole purpose of saving His own people the Hebrew seed of Abraham.
Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Joel were sent to Israel by God. Their prophecies were spoken TO ISRAEL -NOT to Gentiles. These prophecies have to do with Israel and God's plan for them. These prophecies are NOT to Gentiles. And it is a very disgusting thing that members here do not follow or understand God's plans for the Hebrew people. God made NO COVENANT with Gentiles. But many here turn to the New Testament writings and claim Gentiles as part of God's plan for Israel. BUT NOWHERE DOES GOD ADDRESS GENTILES except where He plans judgment AGAINST Gentiles which culminate in Gentile's destruction and consummation in Revelation 20:7-9.
True, born-again Christians DO NOT ADD to the Bible. IF Gentiles are not included in any of the three covenants God made with Abram and his seed, then Gentile's are not included in these prophecies above spoken to Israel by prophets Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Joel. God saves through covenant and there are NO GENTILES included in these three prophecies by Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Joel.
NONE.
If YOU believe there are Gentiles included in these three prophecies God sent to Israel, then you are so very wrong. In my reading of these texts NO GENTILES are included within these prophecies. NONE.
None at all.
So, get a clue. STOP adding to the Bible things not found in the text of Scripture.
