  1. E-v-e-r-y-o-n-e!<\/em> Verse 1 spells out who is turning to Jeremiah: \u201cThen all the army officers, with Johanan son of Kareah, Jezaniah son of Hoshaiah, and all the rest of the people, great and small, approached the prophet Jeremiah.\u201d It isthe first time that the people want to hear what he has to say.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Oaths and faith<\/em>. Note the oath in verse 5. It is a powerful expression, swearing to finally listen to the voice of the prophet.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. More echoes of the dedication prophecy<\/em>. Jeremiah began his career with the following goals: \u201c To uproot and to pull down, To destroy and to overthrow, To build and to plant\u201d (1:10). How? When? In the prophecy in today\u2019s chapter, another answer is given: \u201cIf you remain in this land, I will build you and not overthrow, I will plant you and not uproot; for I regret the punishment I have brought upon you\u201d (v. 10).<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. What do the people want to hear<\/em>? From the answer that Jeremiah gives, one can deduce that the people have one foot in Egypt – they\u2019re already on their way – convinced that there, a brighter future is in store.
