Jeremiah 3:24

Context

3:24 From earliest times our worship of that shameful god, Baal,

has taken away 1  all that our ancestors 2  worked for.

It has taken away our flocks and our herds,

and even our sons and daughters.

1 tn Heb “From our youth the shameful thing has eaten up…” The shameful thing is specifically identified as Baal in Jer 11:13. Compare also the shift in certain names such as Ishbaal (“man of Baal”) to Ishbosheth (“man of shame”).

2 tn Heb “fathers” (also in v. 25).
