Jeremiah / Question
Question source
Jeremiah
Jeremiah first sees a branch of an almond tree, connected to God watching over his word (Jeremiah 1:11–12). He then sees a boiling pot tipping from the north, tied to coming disaster from the north (Jeremiah 1:13–14).
11Moreover the word of Yahweh came to me, saying, Jeremiah, what see you? I said, I see a rod of an almond-tree.
12Then said Yahweh to me, You have well seen: for I watch over my word to perform it.
13The word of Yahweh came to me the second time, saying, What see you? I said, I see a boiling caldron; and the face of it is from the north.
14Then Yahweh said to me, Out of the north evil shall break forth on all the inhabitants of the land.
