I
was really impacted with the hope that the book ended with, that when everything
is going horribly wrong and all of God’s people are away from their promised
land, there is still hope in David’s line. Jehoachin gets released from prison
and ends up eating at the kings table! I like that it leaves on a cliff hanger
like this and stirs up hope inside that God has got his hand in this and he IS
going to redeem his people for the sake of his name. I love that God is a
redeemer in this book, that it ends with hope and there are gems of redemption
dotted through it. They are a bright light in an otherwise hopeless time.
