Jeremiah 41 – 42
This murder and war by Ishmael is evidence of the predominant evil that was among the Jews which led to them being given into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar and Babylon.
When the people asked Jeremiah to pray to the Lord and promised that they would do whatever He counseled they had already decided to go to Egypt. As part of his prophecy, Jeremiah told them that he knee they would go to Egypt anyway despite the word of the Lord they had promised to obey.
