JEREMIAH 9:6 — KING JAMES VERSION 1
Jer 9:5Jer 9:7
Thine habitation is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to know me, saith the Lord.
God's exhaustion with deception: 'You live in the midst of deception; in their deceit they refuse to acknowledge me, declares the LORD.' This verse presents God's perspective: He observes the people living in a world of deception, and in the midst of this deception, they 'refuse to acknowledge me.' The refusal to acknowledge God occurs within a context of pervasive falsehood. Theologically, this verse indicates that the people's refusal of God is rooted in a broader spiritual condition: they live in deception and cannot recognize truth.
