“For thus saith the Lord; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.”
The cry of terror and absent peace depict chaos and fear of military invasion. Jeremiah describes not merely physical invasion but existential dread penetrating every aspect of life. This vivid portrayal of suffering sets the context for restoration promises, emphasizing that deliverance will be genuine and radical, not merely superficial comfort.
