From the day your fathers came out of the land of Egypt
This phrase refers to the Exodus, a foundational event in Israel's history when God delivered the Israelites from slavery in Egypt. It marks the beginning of Israel as a nation under God's covenant. The Exodus is frequently referenced throughout the Bible as a demonstration of God's power and faithfulness (Exodus 12-14). It also serves as a type of Christ's redemptive work, as Jesus delivers believers from the bondage of sin.

until this day
This indicates the continuous nature of God's communication and relationship with Israel. The phrase "until this day" suggests a long history of interaction, spanning from the Exodus to the time of Jeremiah, which is approximately 800 years. This continuity underscores God's patience and enduring commitment to His people despite their repeated disobedience.

I have sent you all My servants the prophets
God's sending of prophets is a testament to His desire to guide, correct, and restore His people. Prophets served as God's mouthpieces, delivering messages of warning, judgment, and hope. Figures like Moses, Samuel, Elijah, and Isaiah were pivotal in calling Israel back to faithfulness. The role of the prophet is crucial in the biblical narrative, as they often foreshadow Christ, the ultimate Prophet, who perfectly reveals God's will (Deuteronomy 18:15-19).

again and again
This phrase emphasizes God's persistent efforts to reach His people. Despite Israel's repeated failures and idolatry, God continually sent prophets to call them to repentance. This persistence highlights God's longsuffering nature and His unwillingness to give up on His covenant people. It also reflects the theme of divine patience found throughout Scripture, as seen in 2 Peter 3:9, where God is described as patient, not wanting anyone to perish.

Teaching Points
God's Persistent Call
God continually reaches out to His people through His prophets, demonstrating His patience and desire for repentance.

The Importance of Listening
The repeated sending of prophets underscores the importance of heeding God's word and turning from sin.

Historical Context and Continuity
Understanding the historical context of Israel's deliverance from Egypt helps us appreciate the continuity of God's message and His faithfulness.

Covenant Relationship
The promise of dwelling in the land is contingent upon obedience, highlighting the conditional nature of God's covenant with His people.

Modern Application
Just as God sent prophets in the past, He continues to speak to us today through His Word and the Holy Spirit, calling us to repentance and faithfulness.(25) Daily rising up.--Stress is laid on the continual succession of prophets as witnesses of the Truth from the beginning. The prophet was not tied to the actual letter of his statement, and the prominence given to Samuel, as the first who bore the name of prophet (1Samuel 9:9), seems at first against him. On the other hand, the gift of prophecy (as seen in Numbers 11:25-29) was bestowed freely even during the wilderness wanderings, and the mention of prophets (Judges 4:4; Judges 6:8) and men of God (Judges 13:6), perhaps, also, that of the "angel" or messenger of God, in Judges 5:23, as well as the honour paid to seers before the time of Samuel (1Samuel 9:8), show that, great as he was, it was that name and the organisation, rather than the gift, that were new in his ministry. . . .
