Read Jeremiah 10.17-25. In 10.17-25: Exile. These verses shift back tot he time before the Exile, and God announces that the attack, expected throughout chs. 4-10, is about to come (vv. 17-17, 22). In verses 19-20: A second voice, probably that of Jerusalem personified as daughter Zion, laments her fate. She is abandoned and her children gone. In verses 23-25: She admits her sins and asks for divine justice in punishment of both herself and the nations who devour Jacob, another name for Israel. Comments or Questions..
