Knowing God Dispels Darkness

Commentators explain that rejecting false gods is insufficient without embracing the true God. Jeremiah doesn't just critique idols; he presents a magnificent vision of God's unique glory. This positive truth about who God is serves as the light that actively dispels the darkness of idolatry, making it the foundation of true worship.
