Reading for October 25th
Read Jeremiah 36.20-32.
In verses 20-26: In a dramatic scene, the scroll is read to the king, who cuts it up and burns it as it being read.
The king's action is a symbolic attempt to destroy the uncontrollable power of the word by making it disappear.
In verses 37-32: But the prophetic word acannot be erased;Jeremiah disctates another version and adds more words to it.
Jehoiakim, therefor, is responsible for the fall of the nation, for he would not listen.
