A Powerful Prophet

Day 171: Jeremiah 37-40

The story of King Zedekiah and Jeremiah reminds me of Joseph and his relationship with Pharaoh. It's amazing to me how these people who have so much earthly power seem to bow and humble themselves in front of the Lord's appointed people.

Jerusalem falls to Babylon, but King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon gives orders to his men to take Jeremiah but not to hurt him. It's interesting that he spares him.

About Kara

I am Kara Poe Alexander. I began this blog to read the Bible anew, with fresh eyes and an open mind. I hope to grow closer to God, to learn how these ancient stories are still relevant today, and to develop a spiritual discipline of Bible study.
