Ezekiel 11:16

16 Therefore say, ‘Thus says Lord Yahweh, “Though I had removed them far away among the nations, and though I had scattered them among the countries, yet I was a asanctuary for them a little while in the countries where they had gone.”’

Jeremiah 24:2-7

2 One basket had very good figs, like afirst-ripe figs, and the other basket had bvery rotten figs which could not be eaten due to rottenness. 3 Then Yahweh said to me, “aWhat do you see, Jeremiah?” And I said, “Figs, the good figs, very good; and the rotten figs, very rotten, which cannot be eaten due to rottenness.”
4 Then the word of Yahweh came to me, saying,
5 “Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, ‘Like these good figs, so I will recognize aas good the exiles of Judah, whom I have sent out of this place into the land of the Chaldeans. 6 For I will set My eyes on them for good, and I will areturn them to this land; and I will bbuild them up and not pull them down, and I will cplant them and not uproot them. 7 I will give them a aheart to know Me, for I am Yahweh; and they will be bMy people, and I will be their God, for they will creturn to Me with their whole heart.

Jeremiah 24:8


8 ‘But like the arotten figs which cannot be eaten due to rottenness—indeed, thus says Yahweh—so I will give over bZedekiah king of Judah and his officials and the cremnant of Jerusalem who remain in this land and the ones who inhabit the land of dEgypt.

Jeremiah 24:10
