God 's Message came to me. It went like this: "Get out in the streets and call to Jerusalem, ‘ God 's Message! I remember your youthful loyalty, our love as newlyweds. You stayed with me through the wilderness years, stuck with me through all the hard places. Israel was God 's holy choice, the pick of the crop. Anyone who laid a hand on her would soon wish he hadn't!'" God 's Decree.

Contextual Overview
1 Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying, 2 Go and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, Thus saith the Lord ; I remember thee, the kindness of thy youth, the love of thine espousals, when thou wentest after me in the wilderness, in a land that was not sown. 3 Israel was holiness unto the Lord , and the firstfruits of his increase: all that devour him shall offend; evil shall come upon them, saith the Lord . 4 Hear ye the word of the Lord , O house of Jacob, and all the families of the house of Israel: 5 Thus saith the Lord , What iniquity have your fathers found in me, that they are gone far from me, and have walked after vanity, and are become vain? 6 Neither said they, Where is the Lord that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, that led us through the wilderness, through a land of deserts and of pits, through a land of drought, and of the shadow of death, through a land that no man passed through, and where no man dwelt? 7 And I brought you into a plentiful country, to eat the fruit thereof and the goodness thereof; but when ye entered, ye defiled my land, and made mine heritage an abomination. 8 The priests said not, Where is the Lord ? and they that handle the law knew me not: the pastors also transgressed against me, and the prophets prophesied by Baal, and walked after things that do not profit.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Moreover, the word of the Lord came to me, saying. Here begins the book, and Jeremiah's first sermon; and the following contains the message he was sent with, to which the preceding chapter is only a preface or introduction. The Targum calls it,
"the word of the prophecy from before the Lord.''
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Moreover - literally, And. Notice the connection between Jeremiah’s call and first prophecy.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER II
God expresses his continued regard for his people, long since
chosen, 1-3.
He then expostulates with them on their ungrateful and worse
than heathen return to his regard, 4-11;
at which even the inanimate creation must be astonished,
12, 13.
After this their guilt is declared to be the sole cause of the
calamities which their enemies had power to inflict on them,
14-17.
They are upbraided for their alliances with idolatrous
countries, 18, 19;
and for their strong propensity to idolatry, notwithstanding
all the care and tender mercy of God, 20-29.
Even the chastenings of the Almighty have produced in this
people no repentance, 30.
The chapter concludes with compassionately remonstrating
against their folly and ingratitude in revolting so deeply from
God, and with warning them of the fearful consequences, 31, 37.
