Imagine this. A husband or a wife walks into a courtroom, a divorce courtroom. They have charges to bring and multiple exhibits of their right to sue for a divorce. Their spouse has turned away from them to others. They are broken, saddened, spurned and even upset. Should they take their spouse back, even if they’re sorry?

Though the story above is all too common, we’re not going to be talking about marriage and divorce, not this week. This week, as we get back into Jeremiah, it is God who is bringing the suit and we who are being charged with unfaithfulness. It is God who is broken, saddened, spurned and even upset. Should he - will he - take us back, even if we’re sorry? Would he do that for Israel? We’ll be looking at selections from Jeremiah 2 and 3.
