Good morning, everyone!
Today I read Jeremiah 38-41.
In today's reading, the elders go to the king and demand that Jeremiah be killed, so Jeremiah gets thrown in a cistern, or a tank that stores water, only there was no water, so he sunk into the mud.
But a man went to the king and told him that the elders had dealt wickedly with Jeremiah. So the king sent for Jeremiah and had a secret meeting with him so that Jeremiah could tell him all that the Lord had said, without the elders finding out.
And in the later chapters, all that Jeremiah told them that the Lord had said came to pass.
Babylon attacked and the people were either captured or killed. Even Jeremiah was taken, but he was released and allowed to go to the house of the man governing the people.
I hope you'll join me tomorrow when I read Jeremiah 42-45.
