Judgment Against the Nations

Chapters 47-49 are prophecy by Jeremiah against the nations who brought idolatry into Israel. They now became conquered by Babylon as part of God judgment against them. Psalm 2 may also be read and applied to this judgment as we find that the nations rage against God's anointed. This Psalm may also be called a coronation psalm as it was believed to have been used when David was cornated king. Yet also speaks concerning the coming reign of Jesus.
