A couple of things stood out to me in today’s read. I was amazed how the people sought to inquire of the LORD, they swore to obey whatever the LORD said regardless of what He said only to disobey as soon as they heard the Word. I also found it interesting that the LORD who knows all things knew that they will disobey so that the prophecy ended with “ so you can be sure you will die from war, famine and disease in Egypt where you insist on going” and even after, they still went. (Jeremiah 42:21-22) Yet another thing from 42 was touching to read. V. 10, God did not just reassure them of the good to come but He added that He was sorry about all the things He had done.
