儿童解释

Imagine if your friend had a toy that they thought was magical, but you knew it wasn't real. One day, you tell your friend that you're going to show them that the toy isn't magical, and you're going to take it away. That's kind of like what God is saying here, but with the idols of Babylon.

历史背景

Jeremiah, a prophet, wrote this around 600 B.C. during a time when Babylon was a powerful empire. The Babylonians worshipped many idols, and this verse is a prediction of Babylon's downfall and the judgment on their false gods.
