Bible Question: Is there a place in Jeremiah where it says not too cut down trees and decorate them and place them in your home? I can not seem to find it if is there. |
Bible Answer: Hello Jefferson, I don't think you'll find wording in Jeremiah having anything to do with "not too (sic) cut down trees and decorating them and place them in your home"! The reference you're looking for is most likely, Jer 6:6 - "For thus says the LORD of hosts, "Cut down her trees And cast up a siege against Jerusalem. This is the city to be punished, In whose midst there is only oppression." (NASB) However, the context is speaking about impending disaster for Jerusalem. It is not an injunction against Christmas trees:-) I hope this helps, BradK |
