And the Chaldeans, that fight against this city, shall come and set fire on this city, and burn it with the houses, upon whose roofs they have offered incense unto Baal, and poured out drink offerings unto other gods, to provoke me to anger.
Los babilonios que están peleando contra esta ciudad vendrán y le prenderán fuego. Quemarán la ciudad junto con todas las casas donde la gente ha quemado incienso a Baal en sus azoteas y ha derramado ofrendas de bebida a otros dioses, provocándome a ira.
Dios permitirá que los babilonios destruyan Jerusalén con fuego como castigo por la idolatría del pueblo.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the 6th century BC, the prophet Jeremiah was delivering God's warnings to the people of Judah during a time of political turmoil, as the Babylonian Empire, often called the Chaldeans, was preparing to invade and destroy Jerusalem. The people had been practicing idolatry by offering incense and drink offerings to false gods like Baal on their rooftops, which was a common pagan ritual in ancient Near Eastern cultures and directly defied God's covenant with Israel. This verse reflects God's judgment on their unfaithfulness, foretelling the city's fiery destruction as a consequence of their sins.
