Make an everlasting covenant with them

Jeremiah 32:26-44
I am the Lord of all mankind, is anything too hard for me?
They turn their backs to me and not their faces; though I taught them again and again they would not listen or respond to discipline.
I will make an everlasting covenant with them: I will never stop doing good to them, and I will inspire them to fear me, so that they will never turn away from me.
As I have brought all this great calamity on this people, so I will give them all the prosperity I have promised them. Fields will be bought for silver, and deeds will be signed, sealed and witnessed in the territory of Benjamin, in the villages around Jerusalem, because I will restore their fortunes, declares the Lord.
In answer God outlines his immediate, and his ultimate purpose for the nation.
Baruch, Jeremiah's secretary, makes his first appearance in verse 12. He comes to the fore in chapters 36 and 45.
Why?
God's angry is reasonable for the people of Israel and Judah makes evil things and arouse God's angry and wrath. God have to clear all the detestable things from this land, For this land is belong to the Lord and it is the promised land from the Lord. God makes his name be Holy.
Make an everlasting covenant with them: throught Jesus and Holy Spirit, God makes new covenant with us in the heart. Make new relatioship between each one of Christian and the Lord.
How?
God is faithful, have mercy and righteousness. Fear his Holy Name.
