Northern Israel is reminded of their family history as much as their own to show they were heading the wrong direction spiritually. They only had something to lose by ignoring the centuries of warnings they were given. Yet if they were going to go the direction of Egypt and Canaan, they’d see the judgment of God just like they did.

1. Failure to learn means you’ll repeat the course.

2. God calls people, especially His people, to account a lot sooner than Judgment Day.

3. Ignoring God’s Warnings are not wise.
