It was written in 626 B.C. to 586 B.C. by the prophet Jeremiah. His main point in his writing was discussing the impending disasters that would strike Judah and Jerusalem if the Israelites did not worship God and obey his laws. He discusses how human nature can take people away from God and the only way to change that is to let God into their hearts, because God is the only one that can change human nature. Lastly he talks about the new Covenant, which is discussed below. His writings were very important and he is one of the major profits.

In Jeremiah 31: 31-34 we hear the story about God’s new covenant with his people. God tells Jeremiah that he will make a new covenant with his people, because the old one has been broken and it is outdated. He says in this new covenant that everyone will know God whether rich or poor and they will worship him as he guides them in the right direction. God will forgive all of their sins and he will make the relationship between him and his people pure again. This fore shadows the coming of Jesus Christ and how he will die for all of our sins and put the new covenant in place. The values that we can take away from this story are very important to realize in our everyday life. First, the fact that God wants to make a new covenant with us illustrates that our God is a forgiving God and no matter how much we sin or stray away from him, he will always want to have a relationship with us if we are faithful to him. It shows that God loves us and truly cares for us even in times of hardship. He will never abandon us and he will always stick with his creation. This should encourage us as his people to pray to him and really try and have a relationship with him. In addition, it shows us that God always has a plan for us and he wants to lead us in the right direction. God guides throughout our lives and he is always wanting the best for us and that is something that we need to understand, so that we can fully receive him. Looking at this new covenant we can relate this to our lives in the idea of forgiveness. Through the New Covenant God is forgiving us for our sins and giving us a fresh start as we should when someone hurts us and does us wrong. We should realize that even though people are hurtful and wrong us they are human and just like God always forgives us, we should always forgive them. This New Covenant also represents hope because God believes that our relationship will be restored and brings a positive outlook between his people and him. This story is so great because I also see it as moving on from the past, because when we are stuck in the past we cannot move forward and that hurts us. The Covenant in this passage represents us moving forward and learning from our mistakes to create and become better people. I challenge you to make new covenants in your life and to really value the message that this passage from Jeremiah expresses to all of us.
