THE MESSAGE
God explained, "This is the way I am going to ruin the pride of Judah and the great pride of Jerusalem—a wicked bunch of people who won't obey me, who do only what they want to do, who chase after all kinds of no-gods and worship them. They're going to turn out as rotten as these old shorts. Just as shorts clothe and protect, so I kept the whole family of Israel under my care"— God 's Decree—"so that everyone could see they were my people, a people I could show off to the world and be proud of. But they refused to do a thing I said.

Contextual Overview
1 The Lord told me, "Go and buy a pair of linen shorts. Wear them for a while, but don't wash them." 2 So I bought a pair of shorts and put them on. 3 Then the Lord said, 4 "Take off the shorts. Go to Parah and hide the shorts in a crack between some large rocks." 5 And that's what I did. 6 Some time later the Lord said, "Go back and get the shorts." 7 I went back and dug the shorts out of their hiding place, but the cloth had rotted, and the shorts were ruined. 8 Then the Lord said: 9 Jeremiah, I will use Babylonia to destroy the pride of the people of Judah and Jerusalem. 10 The people of Judah are evil and stubborn. So instead of listening to me, they do whatever they want and even worship other gods. When I am finished with these people, they will be good for nothing, just like this pair of shorts.
