Bible Question:
Jer 5:30 "An appalling and horrible thing Has happened in the land: Jer 5:31 The prophets prophesy falsely, And the priests rule on their own authority; And My people love it so! But what will you do at the end of it? Can explain this verses? same with the world now. |
Bible Answer: Scripture ... Jer 5:1-31, 2 Tim 4:1-5 ... lialia1212, greetings. The context is important. See the effect of sin (vv 1-19). Jeremiah is told proclaim God’s word to the people of Israel (vv 20-25). God speaks against the rich and powerful and increae it at the expense of the poor and weak (vv 26-29). Now He speaks against the enstrusted rulers. The prophet had to proclaim faithfully and truthfully His word. It was simple, but may not be popular. The were to priests rule by God's power ... a theocracy. When leaders mislead the people, there is moral decline. Read 2 Timohty 4:1-5. I hope I answered your question, Searcher |
