87. Internal Meaning of Jeremiah, Chapter 21
1-2 The hell of blasphemers of the Lord and of profaners of the Word was present. (3)
3-5 The Lord cannot turn this away, because they ally it to themselves. (3)
6 Everything that they have is such; (3, 12)
7 and they will all perish. (3, 15)
8-10 Those who study the Word are worse off because they study it from something profane that is within. (3, 15)
11-12 There is no good and truth. (3, 15)
Jeremiah 21:7
7
Afterward, says Yahweh, I will deliver Zedekiah king of Judah, and his servants, and the people, even such as are left in this city from the pestilence, from the sword, and from the famine, into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life: and he shall strike them with the edge of the sword; he shall not spare them, neither have pity, nor have mercy.
