30:1-2 The Lord instructed Jeremiah to write all the messages that He had given to the prophet in a book.
30:3 There needed to be a permanent record of these predictions since the people rejected the Lord's words. When He restored the fortunes of Israel and returned the people to their land the book would vindicate His faithfulness. It would also vindicate His predictions of judgment to come.
