Don't go to Egypt thinking you will be safe there! But they do... and they take Jeremaih with them! Two views of history. A surprising word to Baruch.

The Eastern Leg offers several possibilities: The Byzantine Empire followed by the Ottoman Empire but inhabited throughout with the "Orthodox" Church. We move then to Daniel 7 where a prophecy that parallels Daniel 2 appears.

Zedekiah wants to hear the word of the Lord... he does, and then disobeys it. Jeremiah spared, remains in Judah as exiles are taken away. Gedaliah is the new governor. Mudered. Murderer Ishmael works for Ammonites and brings captives away from Judah, only to be rescued by Johanan.

The Eastern "leg" of the Roman Empire. Byzantium/Constantinople/Istanbul The Ottoman Empire/Muslims Eastern Orthodoxy

Jeremiah dictates the Word of the Lord to Baruch: twice! The prophet comes close to death.

The Rome of tomorrow. The ten toes/2 feet. Iron plus clay. Islam invasion of Europe.

Restoration is coming! Zedekiah given a warning! Servants freed then recalled. God angry. The marvelous holiness of a family in Israel.

The face of Rome we know today. Not so threatening but still very influential. It doesn't go away, like all the other empires did...

How can a just and holy God "justify" a sinner? Mr. Spurgeon will help with this serious question.

Babylon being rebuilt? Did Roman Catholicism pick up where Roman Empiricism left off?
