Jeremiah 1–10
A young man from a priestly village is told he was known before he was formed and appointed over nations. He objects, is touched on the mouth, and is shown an almond branch and a pot boiling over from the north. The message he is handed is the one nobody wants: my people have committed two evils, they have forsaken the fountain of living waters and cut out cisterns that hold nothing.
