Jeremiah 31 · Grade 4

The New Covenant

Name Date

Read and Think

Jeremiah 31 is the high point of the Book of Comfort. Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love. Therefore I have drawn you with loving kindness. Scattered Israel would return from the north country, including the blind and the lame. They would come and sing in the height of Zion, and God would turn their mourning into joy.

Even grief over lost children received God's comfort. God said, Refrain your voice from weeping, and your eyes from tears, for your work will be rewarded, says Yahweh. They will come again from the land of the enemy. There is hope for your latter end. God also remembered Ephraim, the northern kingdom, like a dear son and promised mercy.

Then came the promise of a new covenant. The old covenant at Sinai had been broken. In the new covenant God said, I will put my law in their inward parts, and I will write it in their heart. Everyone would know God personally, and God would forgive their iniquity and remember their sin no more. In the New Testament, the book of Hebrews quotes this new covenant promise in full (Hebrews 8:8-12).
