"Against the nations"
Text: Jeremiah 46:1
THE LORD GOD OF THE WORLD
The LORD graciously identified Himself with Israel and Judah by a special covenant. However, His lordship was not just over Israel. He is the LORD God of the entire world!
“The word of the LORD which came to Jeremiah the prophet
against the nations. Against Egypt.
Concerning the army of Pharaoh Necho, king of Egypt,
which was by the River Euphratesin Carchemish,
and which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon
defeated in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah:”
