Gird Up Your Loins 5/5

The restoration. So much of this book is deeply unpleasant – God’s anger unto wrath, the notion that God pulls geopolitical strings to punish and reward – but Jeremiah is clear that God’s punishment is for the sake of the people’s restoration, rather than an end in itself. We can reject (or at least question) the notion that God is orchestrating global events to teach anybody a lesson, but still take the promise of our “return” and the language of “new covenant” as a promise for us.
