DID GOD DIVORCE ISRAEL? What Did Jeremiah Really Teach? – with Rabbi Michael Skobac

Some Christian groups embrace a doctrine called Replacement Theology. They believe that God has rejected the people of Israel as His special, chosen nation and replaced them with the Church. These people believe they are the New Israel.

Some Christians find support for this idea in the third chapter of Jeremiah, where the prophet raises the case of a man who divorces his wife and she then marries another man. According to Biblical law, she is not allowed to then remarry her earlier husband should the second one die or divorce her. Jeremiah then berates those of God's people who committed spiritual adultery by worshipping idols and asks if they can then return to God after this treachery. These Christians assume that the answer is no, and that God would have permanently rejected these wayward children.

In this video lecture, Rabbi Skobac shows that this is a total misreading of the scriptures both in the immediate context and overall context of the Bible.

Throughout the scriptures, God repeats numerous times that His relationship with Israel is eternal and cannot and will not be terminated. And in Jeremiah chapter 3, God pleads with Israel, numerous times, to return to Him in repentance. It is clear that He hasn't cast them off for good if He is constantly urging them to renew their relationship and return to Him.

JEWS FOR JUDAISM is an outreach organization whose primary goal is to win back to Judaism those Jews who have been influenced by the following six threats to Jewish survival that are devastating the global Jewish community.

1. Hebrew-Christian missionaries convert thousands of Jews worldwide every year
2. Destructive cults cause many Jews to abandon family, friends and careers
3. Eastern religions, Buddhism and Hinduism are spiritual choices for many Jews
4. Apathy and ignorance leave many Jews unaware, unaffiliated and assimilated
5. Intermarriage is exploding with a 75% rate in some North American cities
6. Anti-Israel BDS on campus inhibits Jewish students from standing up for Israel and Judaism

To assist non-Jews who have left other religions, JEWS FOR JUDAISM also provides educational programs to help them embrace the Torah’s Seven Noachide Laws for Gentiles.

We achieve our goals through our worldwide Internet outreach, Social Media, free educational programs, educational literature and counseling services that connect Jewish people to the spiritual depth, beauty and wisdom of Judaism.

“I am so grateful to have discovered the wonderful Jews for Judaism YouTube lectures by Rabbi Skobac. I am a Jew who converted to Christianity in college, but now, thanks to your online outreach, I have returned to Judaism. Thank you.” – Rebecca G.

In a nutshell, Jews for Judaism saves Jewish lives and keeps Jews Jewish.
