Conclusion






Purpose

To encourage Judah by emphasizing the

sovereignty of God during the Babylonian

captivity and to teach Judah how to live

while outside the land

“The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make

his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the

LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.”

(NIV)
