Summary: | The first words that Jeremiah addresses to Israel, as found in Jr 2, draw together important aspects of the book of the prophet from Anathoth: God’s Covenant with His people and the consequences of their disobedience and rejection of it. Within the quoted chapter, Jr 2, vv. 1-19 form a unit in which God condemns Israel’s infidelities and reminds her of His perennial fidelity which he has shown her in the past. Likewise, God reprimands His people for having walked the way of other gods and He reminds them of the golden age of the desert, the quintessential place of death, where He had led them while satisfying all their needs. Consideration of both actions; that of God and that of Israel, within this frame of reference allows one to draw a theological conclusion and its most logical outcome: Israel is able to encounter God without moving out in search of Him. Las primeras palabras que dirige Jeremías a Israel, presentes en Jr 2, recogen importantes aspectos del libro del profeta de Anatot: alianza de Dios con su pueblo, rebeldía y rechazo de éste y consecuencias del mismo. Dentro del citado capítulo, Jr 2,1-19 forma una unidad, en la que Dios denuncia las infidelidades de Israel y rememora la perenne fidelidad que le mostró en el pasado. Así, Dios reprende a su pueblo por haberse alejado de él y haber caminado en dirección a otros dioses y le recuerda el tiempo dorado del desierto, lugar de muerte por antonomasia, en el que le hizo andar y caminar, satisfaciendo todas sus necesidades. La consideración de ambas acciones, la de Dios y la de Israel, dentro del marco de referencia en que se encuentran permite bosquejar una conclusión teológica y su consecuencia más lógica: a Dios lo puede encontrar Israel sin ponerse en movimiento, sin caminar en su búsqueda. |
