| 0:00.0 | Hello, and welcome to the Scriptures or Real podcast. This is the podcast where we talk about elements of the scriptures that have become real to us because we believe that helps us draw more power |
| 0:21.0 | out of them and apply them to our lives better and we certainly need that. |
| 0:24.6 | I'm your host, Kerry Mealstein, and I'm excited a day to do this shortcast where we're going |
| 0:29.6 | to look at one specific element of the Book of Jeremiah that we get in about three chapters |
| 0:35.4 | towards the last, like, third, middle middle to last third of the book of Jeremiah. |
| 0:41.3 | So we're just going to go through these chapters together. |
| 0:43.6 | And not the whole chapter is just some key elements in them. |
| 0:45.6 | We're going to go to chapter 30. |

| 1:51.8 | We want to think about how this covenant applies to modern Israel as God is gathering Israel in, |
| 1:57.2 | and you as an Israelite covenant individual. |
| 1:59.9 | So think of yourself in all of those ways, or think of these in all those ways. |
| 2:03.8 | So in some ways, when he says, I love verse have forgotten the, they seek the anis, |
| 2:07.6 | talking about ancient Judah. |
| 2:09.1 | But he's also talking about you when you sometimes are, well, we all are idolatrous in one way |
