bronze in Jeremiah 52
BRONZ
This thing shows up in Jeremiah 52:17: “The Chaldeans broke the pillars of brass that were in Yahweh’s house, and the bases and the bronze sea that were in Yahweh’s house in…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real thing in a real place.
Jeremiah 52:17
“The Chaldeans broke the pillars of brass that were in Yahweh’s house, and the bases and the bronze sea that were in Yahweh’s house in pieces, and carried all of their brass to Babylon.”
What kids can learn
When you hear bronze in Jeremiah, remember the sentence around it. God put this thing in the story on purpose.
