Jeremiah 34

Commentary

Jeremiah's message in this chapter highlights the importance of upholding covenants and agreements made with God. The rulers of Judah had promised to release their slaves after six years, but they broke this promise and ignored God's commandments. As a result, they faced dire consequences for their disobedience. This chapter serves as a reminder that God takes promises and covenants seriously, and expects us to do the same. We should always strive to honor our commitments and be faithful to God, even if it requires sacrifice or discomfort on our part.
