Notes

Jeremiah 25:15

The Lord gave Jeremiah messages of wrath, symbolized as a cup filled with the wine of the Lord’s anger (Revelation 14:10). Jeremiah was to make the nations drink from it. God wanted them to hear the messages of condemnation and experience the promised judgment.

Jeremiah 25:15–38

The Lord is the supreme ruler of all nations, and their rebellion was about to bring judgment.
To whom I send you: Jeremiah did not travel to each nation in person. The message he delivered from the Lord spread mainly through written material, much of it in the book of Jeremiah, which people have read worldwide.
