The Good Figs and the Bad Figs

124:1 2 Kgs. 24:12; 2 Chr. 36:10After Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had taken into exile from Jerusalem 24:1 Matt. 1:11; [ch. 22:18, 24, 28] Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, together with 24:1 ch. 29:2; 2 Kgs. 24:12, 14the officials of Judah, the craftsmen, and the metal workers, and had brought them to Babylon, the Lord showed me this vision: behold, 24:1 Amos 8:1, 2two baskets of figs placed before the temple of the Lord.

2One basket had very good figs, 24:2 [Isa. 28:4] like first-ripe figs, but the other basket had 24:2 ch. 29:17very bad figs, so bad that they could not be eaten.

3And the Lord said to me, “What do you see, Jeremiah?” I said, “Figs, the good figs very good, and the bad figs very bad, so bad that they cannot be eaten.”

4Then the word of the Lord came to me:

5“Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Like these good figs, so I will regard as good the exiles from Judah, 24:5 ch. 29:20whom I have sent away from this place to the land of the Chaldeans.

624:6 [Amos 9:4] I will set my eyes on them for good, and I will bring them back to this land. 24:6 ch. 12:15; 29:10I will build them up, and not tear them down; 24:6 ch. 31:28; 42:10; [ch. 1:10; Amos 9:15]I will plant them, and not pluck them up.

724:7 ch. 32:39; Deut. 30:6; Ezek. 11:19; 36:26, 27I will give them a heart to know me, that I am the Lord, 24:7 See ch. 30:22; 31:33and they shall be my people 24:7 See ch. 30:22; 31:33and I will be their God, 24:7 ch. 29:13; Joel 2:12, 13for they shall return to me with their whole heart.

8“But thus says the Lord: Like 24:8 ver. 2; ch. 29:17the bad figs that are so bad they cannot be eaten, so will I treat 24:8 ch. 21:1Zedekiah the king of Judah, his officials, the remnant of Jerusalem who remain in this land, and those who 24:8 See ch. 43–44dwell in the land of Egypt.

9I will make them 24:9 See ch. 15:4a horror24:9 Compare Septuagint; Hebrew horror for evil to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be 24:9 ch. 29:18; 49:13; Neh. 2:17; Isa. 43:28a reproach, 24:9 Deut. 28:37; 2 Chr. 7:20a byword, 24:9 ch. 29:18; 49:13; Neh. 2:17; Isa. 43:28a taunt, and 24:9 ch. 25:18; 26:6; 29:22; 2 Kgs. 22:19a curse in all the places where I shall drive them.

10And I will send 24:10 See ch. 14:12sword, famine, and pestilence upon them, until they shall be utterly destroyed from the land that I gave to them and their fathers.”
