‏ Jeremiah 24:4-7

Summary for Jer 24:4-7: 24:4-7 ^a The people exiled from Jerusalem had a better future than those who remained in the land, because the Lord would plant the exiles as a new community of reformed people (see 1:10 ^b).
24:7 ^c The Lord would do a marvelous work in the hearts of the exiles, helping them to recognize (literally know) . . . the Lord as a personal God (1 Chr 28:9 ^d; Pss 9:10 ^e; 36:10 ^f; Isa 19:21 ^g; 52:6 ^h; Dan 11:32 ⁱ; Hos 2:20 ^j; Titus 1:16 ^k; 1 Jn 4:6-8 ^l).

• They will be my people, and I will be their God: God’s covenant with Israel would become a personal reality to them (Exod 6:7 ^m; 19:5 ⁿ; Deut 29:13 ^o; Rev 21:7 ^p).

• wholeheartedly: The exiles would not mix religious loyalties; they would be completely committed to the one true God.
