and makes flesh his strength,
Consider what Jeremiah/God is saying to the Israelites in the context of their disobedience in these verses.
Now, take the opportunity to consider your communication with each other… how you ‘talk over’ each other in light of the THREE TREE MODEL that I’ve given you to look at.
Jeremiah 17
Jeremiah 17:5–10 ESV
5 Thus says the Lord: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart turns away from the Lord. 6 He is like a shrub in the desert, and shall not see any good come. He shall dwell in the parched places of the wilderness, in an uninhabited salt land. 7 “Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord. 8 He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit.” 9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it? 10 “I the Lord search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.”
Thus says the Lord: “Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart turns away from the Lord.
Trusting in man is making the flesh their strength
Without repentance their heart will turn away from the Lord
Without repentance their heart will turn away from the Lord.
The result is
This man is cursed
A man who trusts in man and not Christ is like a shrub in the desert
They will not bear fruit
They will not see any good come
He shall dwell in the parched places of the wilderness, in an uninhabited salt land
He is like a shrub in the desert, and shall not see any good come. He shall dwell in the parched places of the wilderness, in an uninhabited salt land.
Their dwelling is not in the Lord but in parched places
and shall not see any good come. He shall dwell in the parched places of the wilderness, in an uninhabited salt land.
Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord.
This man is blessed because their trust is not in man but in the Lord
8 He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit.”
9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it?
10 “I the Lord search the heart and test the mind, to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.”
