Which prophet buried his underwear

Then put it around your waist. It reached about halfway down the thighs. So anyway, Jeremiah did what he was told. Hide the loincloth there in a crack in the rocks. Then Jeremiah got a third message from the Lord. All of which got me wondering. Was a waist cloth some kind of early underwear? Before even whitey-tighties?

So I did some research and came up with the following sources:. The last source was the most interesting. Occasionally something would get their attention and the people would return to the way it was supposed to be, but then they would slide off into apostasy, greed, selfishness and downright sin of any and all varieties once again. Another prophet would give them a message, but again like so many times before, the intimacy with God would be rejected in favor of being like the alien neighbors who seemed to be having so much more fun.

Intimate apparel suggests garments that cling to the body, close, familiar and comfortable. Intimacy is more than underwear, though. Intimacy is a relationship that is close, familiar, comfortable and sometimes even passionate. They fear disclosing too much and giving others power, especially the power to hurt deeply, that comes with a person sharing that information with another. God extends intimacy to each of us yet often we reject it or completely forget about it.

We go chasing after foreign or false gods, becoming dirty in the process and straining the intimacy that we, and God, crave. I did not send them, nor did I command them or speak to them. They are prophesying to you a false vision, worthless divination, the deceit AJ of their own minds. There will be no one to bury them AK —they, their wives, their sons, and their daughters.

I will pour out their own evil on them. AN 18 If I go out to the field, look—those slain by the sword! If I enter the city, look—those ill AO from famine! For both prophet and priest travel to a land they do not know. Do You detest AP Zion? Why do You strike us with no hope of healing for us? We hoped for peace, but there was nothing good; for a time of healing, but there was only terror.

Or can the skies alone give showers? Are You not the Lord our God? We therefore put our hope in You, AV for You have done all these things. Send them from My presence, and let them go. Those destined for death, BA to death; those destined for the sword, to the sword. Those destined for famine, to famine; those destined for captivity, to captivity. BE Who will show sympathy toward you? BF Who will turn aside to ask about your welfare? You have turned your back, so I have stretched out My hand against you and destroyed you.

I am tired of showing compassion. Jeremiah , Exodus A new image. Do we not. As they were used to hold water, milk, and other liquids, what the prophet said namely, that they should be all filled with wine was not, as the Jews' taunting reply implied, a truism even literally. The figurative sense which is what Jeremiah chiefly meant, they affected not to understand. As wine intoxicates, so God's wrath and judgments shall reduce them to that state of helpless distraction that they shall rush on to their own ruin Jeremiah , , Isaiah Isaiah Isaiah , As a potter's vessel Revelation So Joshua exhorted Achan to "give glory to God" by confessing his crime, thereby showing he revered the All-knowing God.

Light and darkness are images of prosperity and adversity.

Thou canst not say God does thee wrong, seeing it was thou that gave occasion to His dealing so with thee, by so eagerly courting their intimacy. The Hebrew, is, "are violently handled," or "torn off"; that is, thou art exposed to ignominy. Image from an adulteress. Ethiopian --the Cushite of Abyssinia. Habit is second nature; as therefore it is morally impossible that the Jews can alter their inveterate habits of sin, nothing remains but the infliction of the extremest punishment, their expatriation Jeremiah Psalms The Jews' punishment should answer to their crime.

As their sin had been perpetrated in the most public places, so God would expose them to the contempt of other nations most openly Lamentations Jeremiah denies the moral possibility of one so long hardened in sin becoming soon cleansed.
