There Is That

2 Chronicles 33-36

Nebuchadnezzar totally destroyed Judah, he... killed the young men and young women, the old and the infirm, took all of the treasures from the temple and the palace, then burned them, tore down the walls of Jerusalem, completely destroyed everything of value, and took the few who survived were taken captive. How can there possibly be a bright side?

So the message of the Lord spoken through Jeremiah was fulfilled. The land finally enjoyed its Sabbath rest.

Oh, right... there is that... the land enjoyed the rest that God had always intended. Although he has given us freewill, we cannot thwart God's will, only delay it through our sin. His will be done.
