Jeremiah Chapter 24

Bible Study • Jeremiah Chapter 24 • 11 October 2026


Two baskets of figs sit in front of the temple, one good and one so rotten it can’t be eaten. The easy reading is that God keeps the good people and throws out the bad, so be a good fig. That is half right. It misses who lands in which basket, and who does the work. The good figs are the exiles Jerusalem wrote off, and every verb in verses 5 to 7 has God as its subject: “I will give them a heart to know Me.”
