"Life," if ye surrender; "death," if ye persist in opposing the Chaldees (compare Deuteronomy 30:19). The individuality of Jeremiah's mission from God is shown in that he urges to unconditional surrender; whereas all former prophets had urged the people to oppose their invaders (Isaiah 7:16; Isaiah 37:33, Isaiah 37:35).
