Jabarkan Jeremiah dari Ramalan Alkitab dalam bahasa melayu

"...all nations will gather in Jerusalem to honor the name of the Lord.".(3:17 (NIV))

The Babylonian captivity would end when the "70 years" ended. ()

It lasted 68 years (605 BCE-537 BCE) from the capture of the land of Israel by Babylon and the exile of a small number of hostages including Daniel, Hananiah, Azariah, and Mishael (). It lasted 60 years (597-537 BCE) from the deportation of the 10,000 elite () including Jehoiachin and Ezekiel though there is a discrepancy with Jeremiah's numbers of exiles (). It lasted 49 years (586-537 BCE) from the exile of the majority of Judah () including Jeremiah who was taken to Egypt and leaving behind a poor remnant ().

However, some Christian scholars try to explain the figure in a different way stating that Jeremiah gave a round number.

The "kings of the Medes" would "take vengeance" on Babylon. ()

Christian commentaries have considered the conquering Persian force an alliance between the Persians and the Medes. One suggests the use of the term "Medes" is due to earlier recognition among the Jews and because the generals of Cyrus were apparently Medes.

Jeremiah prophesied that Babylon would be destroyed at the end of the seventy years.(25:12) (Babylon fell to the Persians under Cyrus in 539 BCE (66, 58 or 47 years after the beginning of the Babylonian exile depending on how you count). According to Daniel 5:31, it was the currently unidentified "Darius the Mede" who captured Babylon.)

Babylon would never again be inhabited.(50:39) (Saddam Hussein began to reconstruct it in 1985, but was abruptly halted by the invasion of Iraq. Iraqi leaders and UN officials now plan to restore Babylon.)

"The Levitical priests shall never lack a man in my presence to offer burnt offerings, to burn cereal offerings, and to make sacrifices for ever". (but the destruction of temple in 70 CE brought an end to the Jewish sacrificial system) (33:18) (See Korban)

God will make Jerusalem a heap of ruins, a haunt of jackals; and will lay waste the towns of Judah so no one can live there.(9:11)
