Introduction

Today we look at our last passage in Jeremiah for a while – this time we are in 31:27-34. In this passage, Jeremiah was speaking to Israelites living in exile in Babylon. These Israelites lived through the devastation of war and the terror of being dragged from their homeland to an unfamiliar place. In the passage, we find Jeremiah holding in tension the reality of their challenging circumstances and deep hope that seems to persist in spite of his bleak outlook throughout the book.

Scripture: Jeremiah 31:27-34

The days are surely coming, says the Lord, when I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of humans and the seed of animals. And just as I have watched over them to pluck up and break down, to overthrow, destroy, and bring evil, so I will watch over them to build and to plant, says the Lord. In those days they shall no longer say:
‘The parents have eaten sour grapes,
and the children’s teeth are set on edge.’
But all shall die for their own sins; the teeth of everyone who eats sour grapes shall be set on edge.
