Thu 4/3 · Jer 35 · Rom 7
この章では、父ヨナダブと祖父レカブの命令に従ったレカブ人について説明しています。その命令とは、ワインを飲んだり、住む家を建てたり、ブドウ園や畑や種を植えたりしないことでした（8-10節）。 神は彼らを例として、レカブ人は父に従うが、ユダヤ人は神に従わないとエレミヤを通して語りました（14節）。したがって、神がユダに対して預言した災い（バビロンによる滅亡）は必ず実現します（17節）。 私たちはレカブ人のようになり、父なる神が御言葉で私たちに命じていることを守るべきです。聖書が神の啓示による御言葉だと信じない生ぬるいクリスチャンたちは、反キに騙されて彼を崇拝し、付いて行く危険があります。ですから、できるだけ彼らのために祈り、助けましょう。
