Jeremiah 11
 The Lictors Returning to Brutus the Bodies of his Sons (1789) Jacques-Louis David (1748-1825) Neoclassicism Style Musee du Louvre, Paris, France [ Illustration: Today's painting depicts the death of conspirators, a symbol of the death of those who conspired against God. ] SPECIAL NOTE: [ I will again be working through the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation. I will be adding links, resources, images, and the like, upgrading the former work-through which began with the 2013-10-12 posting which can be found, along with the full Genesis to Revelation postings, in the Archive Page. Postings will be at midnight Eastern Time, as I am able. However, no chapters will be skipped, even though a posting may be late. And all postings will be housed in the Archive Page. ] Explanation: Jeremiah 11 records a conspiracy to overthrow God's government. In a similar event, (around 509 B.C.), a conspiracy to restore the Roman Monarchy arose among the sons of the founder of the Roman Republic, Lucius Junius Brutus. He is not to be confused with his later relative, Marcus Junius Brutus, (85 B.C. - 42 B.C.), who was one of the conspirators against, and assassins of, Julius Caesar). Lucius Junius Brutus consented to, and watched, the execution of his sons and their co-conspirators. In 627 - 560 B.C., a hundred years or so prior to the conspiracy depicted above, a conspiracy arose which was recorded in Jeremiah 11, verse 9; the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem conspired against the LORD to return to their former iniquities. As with the sons of Brutus, so with the rebels against God, destruction and death were the result. As chapter 11 opens, the LORD sends a message to the men of Judah through Jeremiah. He warns them that they will be cursed if they disobey the covenant which he made with their fathers when he brought them out of Egypt promising to be their God and to give them the land of milk and honey in which they were presently living (1-5). Then the LORD sends Jeremiah out into the cities of Judah and the streets of Jerusalem to tell the people to obey the covenant and desist from their constant disobedience (6-8). The LORD then tells Jeremiah that the people had formed a conspiracy to return to the iniquities of their forefathers; therefore the LORD will bring inescapable evil upon them even when they cry to him for deliverance; they will also cry unsuccessfully to their false gods even though their gods are innumerable and fill the land (9-13). For this reason, the LORD tells Jeremiah not to pray for this people because he will not hear them (14). The LORD compares the people to a lewd woman who has no place in the courts of God and to a burned and broken olive tree, which, though he had planted her, now he decrees evil against her (15-17). Likewise, the people conspired to do evil to Jeremiah by killing him and blotting out his name (18-20). Therefore, said the LORD, the conspirators and their families will die; and nothing will be left of them (21-23). [ Sermons: D. A. Carson.

I have attempted to list conservative, scholarly resources. However, some providers use liberal or liberal-influenced commentaries such as the Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges (in Bible Hub). Such commentaries are undoubtedly included by the provider for the wealth of useful information and comments which they provide. By consulting several commentaries, it should be fairly easy to sort out the wheat from the chaff. If, however, you would like personal assistance, write to me at AD LIB ARTS EMAIL.
