Jeremiah 20
Jeremiah was rejected.
Both for his message and personally.
Rejection
Involves being excluded from a social relationship or interaction.
- Not given approval or acceptance. A rejected lover. Feeling lonely and rejected.
Jeremiah feeling rejected.
Preaching that the Babylonians were going to take over Judah, but the King and his officials objecting to that preaching.
Jeremiah 18
At the potter's place
God's world has a purpose.
Creation is a good thing gone bad.
The good thing gone bad recreated.
The potter has prerogative.
The vessel has responsibility.
Jeremiah 19:7 - 1
