Jer 6:17 | MHM | STEP | v. 17 : God set watchmen (prophets) over the people to warn them, like a trumpet sounding an alarm. But the people refused to listen to the warning. They said, "We will not hearken." This stubbornness shows why judgment is coming upon them ( Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken ,. In summary, these verses show that the people of Judah are completely corrupt, from the leaders to the common people. They have rejected God’s word, become shameless in their sins, and refused every warning. Because of this, God’s judgment will be complete and no one will escape. The only hope would have been true repentance, but the people refused to listen and to change.
