Matthew 23:37
Judgment on Israel
23:37 “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those who are sent to you! How often I have longed to gather your children together as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you would have none of it!
The Song of Songs 8:11-12
Solomon’s Vineyard and the Beloved’s Vineyard
The Beloved to Her Lover:
8:11 Solomon had a vineyard at Baal-Hamon;
he leased out the vineyard to those who maintained it.
Each was to bring a thousand shekels of silver for its fruit.
8:12 My vineyard, which belongs to me, is at my disposal alone.
The thousand shekels belong to you, O Solomon,
and two hundred shekels belong to those who maintain it for its fruit.
Jeremiah 25:3-4
25:3 “For the last twenty-three years, from the thirteenth year that Josiah son of Amon was ruling in Judah
until now, the
Lord has been speaking to me. I told you over and over again
what he said.
But you would not listen.
25:4 Over and over again
the
Lord has sent
his servants the prophets to you. But you have not listened or paid attention.
