The concept of a "remnant" is significant throughout the Bible, often referring to a small group of faithful believers preserved by God. Here, however, the absence of a remnant underscores the severity of the judgment. This is reminiscent of the complete destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, where no remnant was left (Genesis 19). It contrasts with other instances where God spares a remnant, such as in the Babylonian exile (<a href="/isaiah/10-20.htm">Isaiah 10:20-22</a>).<p><b>for I will bring disaster</b><br>The disaster is a direct consequence of the people's disobedience and idolatry. This reflects the covenantal relationship between God and Israel, where blessings and curses are contingent upon obedience (Deuteronomy 28). The disaster is not arbitrary but a fulfillment of the warnings given through the Law and the Prophets. It serves as a divine response to the people's breach of covenant, emphasizing God's justice and holiness.<p><b>on the people of Anathoth</b><br>Anathoth was a town in the territory of Benjamin, about three miles northeast of Jerusalem. It was a Levitical city, meaning it was set aside for the priests (<a href="/joshua/21-18.htm">Joshua 21:18</a>). Jeremiah himself was from Anathoth (<a href="/jeremiah/1.htm">Jeremiah 1:1</a>), making this pronouncement particularly poignant. The people of Anathoth had conspired against Jeremiah (<a href="/jeremiah/11-21.htm">Jeremiah 11:21</a>), rejecting his prophetic message. This judgment highlights the seriousness of opposing God's messengers and the consequences of rejecting divine truth.<p><b>in the year of their punishment.</b><br>The "year of their punishment" suggests a specific, divinely appointed time for judgment. This aligns with the prophetic theme of God's timing, where He acts at the appointed time (<a href="/habakkuk/2-3.htm">Habakkuk 2:3</a>). It underscores the certainty and inevitability of God's judgment. The specificity of "the year" may also indicate a historical event, possibly linked to the Babylonian invasions that culminated in the destruction of Jerusalem in 586 BC. This timing reflects God's sovereignty over history and His control over the unfolding of events according to His divine plan.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/jeremiah.htm">Jeremiah</a></b><br>A prophet called by God to deliver messages of warning and judgment to the people of Judah.
