Chapter 24
Jeremiah Chapter 24 About G-d’s Action in Favor and Against Two Types of People — Mainly the Jews
Jeremiah Is Shown Another Vision
If you are being taught that the Jews are no longer G-d’s chosen people, think again.
Obviously not those who are secular or non-observant. For they are not those referred to here as the Good Figs.
*Repentance and obedience are keys to finding favor in G-d’s sight. Not offering or sacrifice; neither faith alone nor grace.
“Vision Of The Good Figs And The Bad Figs”
Hashem said to me, “What do you see, Jeremiah?” And I said, “Figs, The good figs are very good, and the bad figs are so bad that they are inedible.”
24:3
“Thus said Hashem, God of Israel: Like these good figs, so shall I recall the exile of Judah, whom I expelled from this place to the Chaldeans, for goodness.
:5
I shall set My eye upon them for goodness, and return them to this land, and I shall rebuild them and not destroy; I shall replant them and not uproot.
:6
And I shall grant them the heart to know Me, that I am Hashem, and they will be a people unto Me, and I shall be a God for them; for they will return to Me with all their heart.
:7
And like the bad figs, which are so bad that they are inedible — thus said Hashem: So shall I give over Zedekiah king of Judah and his officers and the remnant of Jerusalem who remain in this land and who dwell in the land of Egypt,
:8
I shall give them over to all the kingdoms of the earth for horror and for evil, and they will be a [paradigm of] shame and a parable and a lesson and a curse, in all places to which I will disperse them.
:9
And I shall send after them the sword and famine and pestilence until they are annihilated from upon the land which I gave them and their forefathers.”
:10
1 The Lord showed me two pots of figs, prepared before the Temple of the Lord after Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, had exiled Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah and the princes of Judah and the craftsmen and the sentries of the gates from Jerusalem and brought them to Babylon.
2 One pot [contained] very good figs like the first ripe figs, and the other pot [contained] very bad figs that could not be eaten because they were so bad.
3 And the Lord said to me; What do you see, Jeremiah? And I said, “Figs. The good figs are very good, and the bad ones are very bad, which cannot be eaten because they are so bad.”
4 And the word of the Lord came to me, saying:
5 So said the Lord God of Israel; Like these good figs, so will I recognize the exile of Judah, which I have sent forth from this place to the land of the Chaldeans, for good.
6 And I will place My eyes upon them for good, and I will return them to this land, and I will build them and not destroy, and I will plant them and not pluck them.
7 And I will give them a heart to know Me, for I am the Lord, and they shall be to Me for a people, and I will be to them for a God, for they shall return to Me with all their heart.
8 And like the bad figs that cannot be eaten because they are so bad, for so said the Lord: So will I make Zedekiah King of Judah and his princes and the remnant of Jerusalem remaining in this land, and those dwelling in the land of Egypt.
9 And I shall make them for a horror [and] for evil for all the kingdoms of the earth, for a disgrace and for a proverb, for a conversation piece and for a curse in all the places where I will exile them.
10 And I will send forth the sword, the famine, and the pestilence against them until they are consumed from upon the land that I gave them and their forefathers.
