Notes

Jeremiah 25:12–14

The Lord used the Babylonians to judge Judah, but they would face consequences for their sins, brutality, and abuse of the defeated. In 539 BC, Cyrus the Persian conquered Babylon, and the people went into captivity. For centuries, many nations and great kings enslaved the Babylonians. The territory did not regain independence until 1932, becoming modern Iraq.

Jeremiah 25:1–14

The Lord had been patient with Jerusalem's rebellion and refusal to listen, but now it was time for judgment.
