Jeremiah 35:13

Go tell the men of Judah.

God leaves the wicked without excuse. They are not left in ignorance or without warning. Noah preached for one hundred and twenty years to the antediluvians. For more than. generation Jeremiah called Judah to repentance. Now while the Assyrian armies are thundering around Jerusalem battering down the walls, he still comes and asks in the name of the Lord: "Will you not receive instruction to hearken to my words?" If the Lord had not spoken and warned them, "they had not had sin, but now they had no cloak for their sin."
