Notes

Jeremiah 7:13–15

The people of the northern kingdom had acted like Judah was acting now. God sent many prophets to speak to them (2 Kings 17:22–23; 2 Chronicles 36:15–16), but they did not listen or respond. The Lord spared Jerusalem and the Temple when the Assyrians exiled the northern tribes in 722 BC. This time, the Temple would be destroyed.

Jeremiah 7:12–15

God allowed the Philistines to capture the Ark of the Covenant and destroy the Tabernacle at Shiloh. The people had tried to use the Ark as a magical object (1 Samuel 4:1–11). Similarly, he would allow the Babylonians to destroy the Temple.

Jeremiah 7:1–15

Jeremiah corrected the people who believed that God's Temple would ensure their safety (compare Jeremiah 26:1–6).
