  2. Explication du texte

Why will dead bodies of this people be food for the birds and the beasts?

Jérémie 7:34 (NEG79)

34 Je ferai cesser dans les villes de Juda et dans les rues de Jérusalem Les cris de réjouissance et les cris d'allégresse, Les chants du fiancé et les chants de la fiancée; Car le pays sera un désert.

The invading enemy is going to bring such destruction on Judah that they will not be able to bury their dead quickly enough. Corpses will have to be left exposed as food for the birds of the air, and for the beasts of the earth, and none will frighten them away. The curse of the broken covenant will become reality in Judah: And your dead shall be food for all the birds of the air and for the beasts of the earth, and there shall be no one to frighten them away (Deuteronomy 28:26).1
