Jeremiah study chapter

Jeremiah 2

c. 627 BCGod indicts Israel for forsaking Him, the fountain of living waters, for broken cisterns.

God recalls the early devotion of Israel as a bride and then indicts her for abandoning Him: “they have forsaken me, the fountain of living waters, and hewed out cisterns for themselves, broken cisterns that can hold no water.” He charges the nation with idolatry more shocking than the pagans’, for even they do not change their gods.
