Devotional: Jeremiah 30:1-24

Today’s passage: Jeremiah 30:1-24

Helpful thoughts:

  • “The time of Jacob’s trouble” is associated with the time of tribulation, prior to Jesus’ second coming.
    • See Daniel 12:1, Matthew 24:21-22.
    • Jacob was named Israel in Genesis 32:28.  The name of Jacob is just another way to refer to the nation of Israel.
  • God promises Israel and Judah a king in the line of David, Jesus Christ.
  • Even though Israel had sinned, God’s covenant to bless those who bless her and curse those who curse her remained intact.
  • The “latter days” refers here to the end times.  The promises of this chapter are yet to be fulfilled.

Questions to consider:

  1. How does a passage like this help us to understand God’s continued plans for Israel?  Is God entirely done with Israel?
  2. Who remains Israel’s hope?  To whom must the people of Israel who believe turn for rescue and healing?  Who will be king?
  3. With this understanding, what should our desire be for Israel as it stands today?  What do they still need?  Are they all set as a people simply because they exist as a nation again?  What should our desire be for them?
