Guiding Questions: Jeremiah 43

This is part of the Tanakh Yomi Project.

  1. Continuing Jeremiah 42, what is the response to Jeremiah?
  2. Who is blamed for influencing Jeremiah to “lie”?
  3. And, in fleeing to Egypt, what becomes of Jeremiah and Barukh?
  4. Jeremiah 43:8 affirms the Jewish principle that God is not “geographically positioned.” How?
  5. Jeremiah’s prophecy is that the conflict between Babylonia and Egypt will be resolved in what manner (Jeremiah 43:10-13)?
  6. What is “the house of the sun” and what does the plural “the houses of Egypt’s gods” indicate?
  7. This prophecy, then, is that the flight would result in escape or destruction?
