Jeremiah 25:13
And I will bring upon that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah hath prophesied against all the nations. And I will bring upon that land all my words which I have pronounced against it, even all that is written in this book, which Jeremiah hath prophesied against all the nations.
God's sentence of doom against Judah is clearly pronounced, yet its awful meaning was scarcely understood. To illustrate its meaning, the fate of the nation was likened to draining a cup filled with the wine of divine wrath. Jerusalem and the cities of Judah and its kings were to be among the first to drink of that cup of woe, followed by Pharaoh king of Egypt with his servants and princes and people and many other nations of earth until God's purpose was fulfilled. The same coming evil was further illustrated by breaking a potter's earthen bottle before the elders in the valley of the son of Hinnom, showing that God would break the people and the city beyond repair because after their apostasy was reviewed they had hardened their necks and would not hear His words.
The verse belongs to the prophecies about Jerusalem's desolation and the seventy-year captivity that Daniel studied, which made the duration of the captivity plain and assured the promised return of the exiles. In the first year of Darius, Daniel learned from Jeremiah's prophecy that the seventy-year captivity was nearing its close. Those who held this view also taught that Daniel mistakenly supposed that the 2,300 days ended with the seventy years of Israel's servitude.
