Jeremiah is instructed to take a yoke and wear it around his neck: "
“Bow your neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon; serve him and his people, and you will live."
The False Prophets were claiming that Babylonian dominance was short-lived, but Jeremiah insists that the only way to survive is to submit.
We discuss this message in the light of 50 Years of the Yom Kippur War, and the blessing of the Jewish return to power.
