One,
Yahweh’s people do not always remain loyal to Yahweh nor witness to his ways.
Two, when this happens, Yahweh may use Olympians to discipline his people even
though Olympians do not believe in Yahweh’s existence. Three, Yahweh as easily
restrains Olympians as he does unleash them.
Today
we will recall the words of Jeremiah and Isaiah concerning the people of Yahweh
in Judah and Jerusalem around 600 BC. In 588 BC Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon,
destroyed Jerusalem, burned down the temple built by Solomon, and dragged them into exile.
