Bible: Jer. 2:8, 23; 11:13, 17; 32:35

2:8 Your priests 1  did not ask, ‘Where is the Lord?’ 2 

Those responsible for teaching my law 3  did not really know me. 4 

Your rulers rebelled against me.

Your prophets prophesied in the name of the god Baal. 5 

They all worshiped idols that could not help them. 6 

2:23How can you say, ‘I have not made myself unclean.

I have not paid allegiance to 7  the gods called Baal.’

Just look at the way you have behaved in the Valley of Hinnom! 8 

Think about the things you have done there!

You are like a flighty, young female camel

that rushes here and there, crisscrossing its path. 9 

11:13 And after he became the father of Shelah, Arphaxad lived 403 years and had other 1  sons and daughters. 2 

11:17 And after he became the father of Peleg, Eber lived 430 years and had other sons and daughters.

Jacob Wrestles at Peniel

32:1 So Jacob went on his way and the angels of God 1  met him.
