#Judah was conquered by #Babylon but seventy years later was brought back into the land to restore the #Jerusalem and rebuild the #temple. It was a new beginning for Judah. #Christians are also warned that we are in the world not of it. Further, #friendship with the #world is #enmity with #God. There is no clearer phrase for both #Israel and Christians, we are Escaped of the Nations. God intended it that way. #EscapedoftheNations
