Berean Standard Bible

“Then the LORD said to me: “Even if Moses and Samuel should stand before Me, My heart would not go out to this people. Send them from My presence, and let them go!”

Jeremiah 15:1

Save as image

Study note

Jeremiah 15 follows the prophet's intercession in chapter 14. God declares that even if two of Israel's greatest intercessors stood before him, his heart would not turn to the people, and the chapter then turns to Jeremiah's own pain and God's response to his complaint.
