Read Jeremiah 21:3–7, paying particular attention to vs. 3–5. Write a paper that discusses the theology of this passage. Address the following questions:
- How can it be that the Chaldeans (heathens) are fighting the Israelites (v. 4) but it is also Yahweh (v. 5) fighting them?
- How can Yahweh allow a heathen king (Nebuchadnezzar) to not have any pity while striking down Yahweh’s people?
- How does the theology of this passage apply to us today?
This paper must be 4 pages and must be formatted in current Turabian style, with a title page and a bibliography. At least 5 scholarly references and 5 biblical citations from the book of Jeremiah must be included in this paper, for a total of 10 citations. All scholarly references must have been published within the past 20 years.
