Therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Behold, I will feed them, even this people, with wormwood, and give them water of gall to drink.
Por tanto, esto dice el SEÑOR de los ejércitos, el Dios de Israel: Mira, haré que este pueblo coma hierbas amargas y beba agua envenenada.
Dios castigará a su pueblo haciéndolos sufrir con amargura y veneno por su desobediencia.
📚 Contexto Histórico
During the time of the prophet Jeremiah in the 7th-6th century BC, the people of Judah were deeply involved in idolatry and had abandoned their covenant with God, leading to moral and spiritual decline. Jeremiah delivered this message as a warning of divine judgment, using wormwood (a bitter herb) and gall (a poisonous substance) as symbols of the suffering and hardship that would result from their unfaithfulness. This prophecy was set against the historical backdrop of the rising Babylonian Empire, which ultimately fulfilled God's warnings by conquering Judah and exiling its people.
