And I will give the men that have transgressed my covenant, which have not performed the words of the covenant which they had made before me, when they cut the calf in twain, and passed between the parts thereof,
Entregaré a los hombres que han quebrantado mi pacto y no han cumplido las promesas que me hicieron. Hicieron este pacto cuando cortaron un becerro por la mitad y caminaron entre las piezas.
Dios entregará al castigo a quienes rompieron su pacto y no cumplieron sus promesas.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the time of the prophet Jeremiah, during the reign of King Zedekiah and the Babylonian siege of Jerusalem, the people of Judah had made a covenant with God to free their Hebrew slaves as required by Mosaic Law, but they later reneged on this promise. This covenant was sealed through an ancient ritual where a calf was cut in two, and the participants walked between the halves, symbolizing that breaking the agreement would bring severe consequences, much like similar practices in ancient Near Eastern cultures. Such rituals underscored the seriousness of oaths in a society where loyalty to God and community was paramount.
