1 | Broken Promises by God? (seriously?) | Jer 34:4 | Morant61 | 168015 | ||
Greetings Living4God! Welcome to the family of God! :-) You will quickly discover in your Christian walk that most sites that claim errors or broken promises in Scripture subtly twist their quotations. This is the case in this particular example. Let us look at what was promised to Zedekiah. 1) He would not die by the sword (Jer. 34:4). 2) You will die peacefully (Jer. 34:5). 3) Their will be a fire of lament made in your honor (Jer. 34:5). There also some promises made in the previous verses as well. 4) You will not escape from the king of Babylon (Jer. 34:3). 5) You will be captured (Jer. 34:3). 6) You will see the king with your own eyes (Jer. 34:3). 7) You will go to Babylon (Jer. 34:3). Now, lets look at the historical account of Jeremiah 52 and see if any of these promises were broken. He did not die by the sword. He was captured. He did go to Babylon. He lived in prison. He died (but not by the sword). It is clear that the promises of God were kept. But, notice in the site's question that they slip in the word 'violent' in reference to Zedekiah's death. Where in Jer. 52 does it say that he died a violent death? It doesn't. I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
