Jeremiah ch.11 - Renewing the Covenant

In Chapter 11 Jeremiah calls the people to express alliegance with God's covenant. Many suggest that here he is expressing support in the religious revolution of King Josiah who returned to God after years of Judah following idolatry. The chapter records how this return to and renewal of the ancient covenant of Israel was, tragically, extremely short-lived. The people returned to their idol worship.
