“Yet they obeyed not, nor inclined their ear, but walked every one in the imagination of their evil heart: therefore I will bring upon them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do; but they did them not.”
The repeated refusal: 'The LORD said to me, "There is a conspiracy among the people of Judah and those who live in Jerusalem."' This verse introduces a new theme: a 'conspiracy' exists among the people and inhabitants of Jerusalem. The nature of the conspiracy is not immediately clear but will be elaborated. Theologically, this verse suggests organized resistance to God's covenant.
