Jeremiah 16

Jeremiah 16 is the sixteenth chapter of the Book of Jeremiah in the Hebrew Bible or the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. This book contains prophecies attributed to the prophet Jeremiah, and is one of the Books of the Prophets. In the first part of this chapter (verses 1 to 9), Jeremiah is instructed to adopt a lifestyle which will serve as a "symbolic enactment of God's word", comparable to the instructions given to other prophets: see Hosea 1:2–9, Isaiah 8:3–4 and Ezekiel 24:15–24.
