Context of Jeremiah 30:22
20His children also will be as formerly —his community set up before Me— and I will punish all his oppressors. 21His noble one will be one of His own. His ruler will come forth from among His own. I will bring Him near, and He will approach Me. For who is he who will pledge his heart to approach Me?” It is a declaration of Adonai. “So you will be My people, and I will be your God.” 23Look! A storm of Adonai! Fury has burst out as a churning storm, whirling about the head of the wicked. 24Adonai’s fierce anger will not turn back until He has done it, until He fulfills the purposes of His heart. in the last days you will understand it.
