In our last episode, the prophecies of Jeremiah came to pass. The Chaldean army laid siege to Jerusalem and right before his eyes were gouged out, Zedekiah’s sons were executed in front of him. Our chronological reading of the Old Testament continues as we read this account from 2 Kings. In both readings we are introduced to Nebuzaradan, the Chaldean captain of the guards. Those who surrender to the Chaldeans are spared, and those who resist are put to the sword, usually at Nebuzaradan’s command. Through all of this, the Lord keeps His promises to Jeremiah and protects him from harm. What’s more, the leaders of the Chaldean army treat Jeremiah with greater honor and respect than the leaders of Judah did when they were in power.
