6:10-15 In a series of rhetorical questions, Jeremiah, the messenger-prosecutor, revealed his love for the people; he then expressed his disbelief when the people responded with scorn. After presenting evidence of sins committed by the people from the lowest level of society to the highest, the prophet transmitted a divine decree. The future tense of his indictment suggests that the message was given before the invasion. 6:10 The people could literally hear, because their retorts were filled with scorn, but they did not take the Lord’s message seriously (cp. Acts 7:51).
