The destruction of Jerusalem in 587 B.C. was a monumental tragedy for Israel. The Babylonians finally breach the walls of Jerusalem and burn the Temole. King Zedekiah tries to flee, is captured, blinded and carried into captivity. Jeremiah describes the ravages of the siege in the Book of Lamentations. He is allowed to stay, but is taken away by some Jewish survivors in the opposite direction – to Egypt.
Notes on Jeremiah 39:1-18 (and Jeremiah 52:16-34; 2 Kings 25:22-26)
Our church community gathers throughout the week at different places on The Block, a neighborhood between downtown and the Lakewood area of Dallas, Texas, near the corner of Beacon and Columbia Ave. We'd love to have you join us!
We've posted a bundle of links to the songs of John Rutledge - including the Psalms of Ascent and the Hallel. Click on a song and sing along.
If you can’t make it to The Block, you can listen to podcasts from the archive by our late elder, Ole Anthony, recorded at his daily Morning Bible Studies, available here.
