Notes
Worshiping other gods is pointless. Only the Creator of the universe can control nature.
Even though the Lord commanded otherwise (Jeremiah 14:11), Jeremiah prayed for God to lessen the current disaster and the worse one ahead.
This chapter is a conversation between the Lord, Jeremiah, and the people. It began because a severe drought affected the land.
