Samuel D. Price, D.D. ‘ It is good for any discouraged person to spend time with Jeremâ€" iah. He had been given a mission. No matter how the people treated the messages that he was sent to deliver, he just came right back at them when least expected. Read the entire chapter and then keep right on through chapter ten; all forms the message which this man presented at this time. You will find that Jeremiah was ahead of his day in the use of parables and object lessons. People amlways pay more attention to an object or a story. that relates to the subject matter than under. consideration. ' Jeremiah was bold as an ambassador for he was not delivering his own message. In the opening verse today he makes it clear that he had a "word" to present from Jehovah.. This should have been enough to make the people stop and listen. The place where the ‘speaker took his stand is interesting. It was at the gate entering into the temple in Jerusalem. No longer were the people going therein to learn what they should do, that they might practise the truths in their lives.: Now Jeremiah triee to make them think rightly about the temple as a place of worship and not regard it as a kind of a talisman which would be as a charm to enable them to go out and do just as they pleased.

Yes. That is. just what he had said. before, but they had not paid any .attenti®n thereto, so ‘they must be made to hear the same command again. With this summons there was a promise from Jehovah, If the people would only. obey, they could continue in Jerusalem and Judea and not be carried away into capâ€" tivity, as had been the case with the Northern Ten Tribes. It may be that the people tried to drown out the voice of Jeremiah with their slogan "The temple of Jehovah," for the very walls had become a kind of fetisch. That is the way the people of Ephesus did ,w!xen they criegi for a length of time, “(}reat is Di_ana of the Jeremiah would also use repetition for the sake of emphasis. His word was "thoroughly" as he told them the extent to which they must give up their sins. These sins were named in part, and they have a social relationship. Wrong was being done to "his neighbor, the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow." God is always conâ€" céerned for the defenceless and He wants to make mankind love instead o§ hate one another. By means of varied kinds of communicaâ€" tions this world is indeed a neighborhood, ‘but it is far from being. a brotherhood, such as our ‘Jehovah desires. t > : Plainest language is used in giving: a list of customary sins. They were nameéd thieves, murderers, adulterers and makers of lies. There was only .one way they could stop such things. ~It was not by offering more ‘sacrifices. They were reminded of the loving command that had been given when they were being called out _of Egyptian slavery. It was "Hearken unto my voice." The call of Jeremiah was none other than a renewal of this Voice from the Throne. It was about the last call that would be given, and yet it was not too late. â€" Right now they must "Amend your ways thoroughly." A like urgent call, coupled with a blessed promise comes to every present day sinner. If and when we will meet the conditions, and they are net,..
