Jeremiah 24
During the reign of Zedekiah, Jeremiah had the cision of two basket of figs/ One basket of figs was very good and the other basket were not fit to be eaten. The good figs represented the exiles from Judah whom God will keep an eye on.
The bad figs were represented by Zedekiah , his officials and the survivors of Jerusalem. He would make them abhorrent and an offense to every kingdom on the earth.
Application:
We should be aware that God will punish His people and judge those who refuse to have Him in their lives.
Verses to meditate on:
4Then the word of the LORD came to me: 5“This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Like these good figs, I regard as good the exiles from Judah, whom I sent away from this place to the land of the Babylonians.£ 6My eyes will watch over them for their good, and I will bring them back to this land. I will build them up and not tear them down; I will plant them and not uproot them. 7I will give them a heart to know me, that I am the LORD. They will be my people, and I will be their God, for they will return to me with all their heart.

Six Day War
Psalm 81, with Commentaries, verse by verse
This is a psalm of Asaph and is a festival song. In v. 1-5 a call to celebrate the feast. In 6-10 God heard the people and call the people to loyalty. In v. 11-16 Israel did not listen to God. Verse 10 is meaningful: I am the Lord your God, who brought you up out of Egypt. Open wide your mouth and I will fill it. God has saved us from our sins (EGypt) and He is willing to bless us IF only we listen to Him.
