21 ¿Por ventura no se ha acordado el SEÑOR, y no ha venido a su memoria el sahumerio que ofrecisteis en las ciudades de Judá, y en las plazas de Jerusalén, vosotros y vuestros padres, vuestros reyes y vuestros príncipes, y el pueblo de la tierra?

441Chapter 44 [Jeremiah]

1-6 Much of the church perished by departure from the Lord and by falsities of every kind. (3)

7-10 Now nearly all things left perish by means of knowledges [scientifica] of the natural man, nor do they refrain for fear of destruction, (3)

11-14 because they consult knowledges, and thus there is scarcely any residue. (3, 3)

15-19 They make themselves obstinate, and love things that have been falsified by knowledges. (3)

20-23 Their destruction in consequence of this foretold, (3)

24-27 even until nothing of the church was left, (3)

28 except a few things. (3)

29-30 True knowledges [scientifica vera] are perverted by reasonings therefrom. (3)
