The disaster is not arbitrary but a result of their own actions and plans that were contrary to God's will. It reflects the justice of God in allowing people to experience the consequences of their choices.because they have paid no attention to My word The people's disregard for God's word is a central theme in Jeremiah.

Rejection of God's instruction, or Torah, signifies a willful disobedience and rebellion against God's covenant.
