Shocking! Jeremiah 3:8 tells us that God divorced Israel... but what does that even mean? The answer has major implications for our view of God's future plan for Israel. Thankfully, today as we study Jeremiah 3, we'll see just what God means. Join us for this key study in this key chapter!

DISCUSSION AND STUDY QUESTIONS:

1.    The opening verse of Jeremiah 3 mentions divorce. Why is it so stunning that the Lord broaches this topic with His people? From what we’ve seen so far in our study of God’s Word, and from what we see in verses 1 & 2, what has Israel and Judah been doing to lead up to this point? 
2.    In verses 4 & 5, how were the people pretending not to be adulterous? In verses 6 & 7, how was the Lord insistent that they were? 
3.    In verses 8 & 9, what is the distinction being made between Israel and Judah? Who is Israel and what has happened to her? Who is Judah and what is the Lord warning her about?
4.    How does verses 11 to 14 show us that the Lord still held out the opportunity for reconciliation with Israel? What does true repentance and reconciliation with God look like? 
5.    In verse 15, what does the Lord promise He will give to the people if they repent? What kind of shepherds are these? What will they feed the people with? 
6.    In verse 16, if they repent, what will they have? And what will they not have? Why is this significant?
7.    How will the nations regard Jerusalem in verse 17? What will the condition of their heart be?
8.    In verse 18, what will be the unity of the people? How do you think this unity will occur?
9.    Verses 19 to 23 return again to the people’s adulterous ways. How are these verses further evidence of their true opinion of the Lord?
10.    In verses 24 & 25, how were the people persistent in their unrepentance. Is it possible for someone today to be outwardly united to the Lord, but inwardly having a wandering heart towards Him? What might this look like? 
11.    Reflecting upon the sins of this passage, does your own life reflect a person fully devoted to Jesus? Are there places that you can renew your devotion to Him?
