Jeremiah's Life-style and Message

     The word of Yah, the Lord, also came to me saying, "You shall not take a wife, nor shall you have sons or daughters in this place."  For thus says Yah, the Lord concerning the sons and daughters who are born in this place, and concerning their mothers who bore them and their fathers who begot them in this land: "They shall die gruuesome deaths; they shall not be lamented nor shall they be buried, but they shall be like refuse on the face of the earth.  They shall be consumed by the sword and by famine, and their corpses shall be meat for the birds of heaven and for the beasts of the earth."
