“Question & Answer”

Question:
What were Jeremiah’s inner feelings in the face of the popular opposition to his message?
Answer:
It reads in Jeremiah 20:14-18 KJV> Cursed be the day wherein I was born: let not the day wherein my mother bares me be blessed. Cursed be the man who brought tidings to my father, saying, A man child is born unto thee; making him very glad. And let that man be as the cities which the Lord overthrew, and repented not: and let him hear the cry in the morning, and the shouting at noontide; Because he slew me not from the womb; or that my mother might have been my grave, and her womb to be always great with me. Wherefore came I forth out of the womb to see labor and sorrow, that my days should be consumed with shame? It reads in Jeremiah 15:10 KJV> Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast borne me a man of strife and a man of contention to the whole earth! I have neither lent on usury, nor men have lent to me on usury; yet every one of them doth curse me. It reads in Jeremiah 9:2 KJV> Oh that I had in the wilderness a lodging place of wayfaring men; that I might leave my people, and go from them! for they be all adulterers, an assembly of treacherous men.
