Jeremiah 24
God gives Jeremiah a vision of two baskets of figs placed before the Temple. The good figs represent the exiles already taken to Babylon (like Daniel and Ezekiel), whom God will watch over and bring back to the land. The bad figs represent King Zedekiah and the people left in Jerusalem, whom God will destroy with the sword, famine, and pestilence. This vision teaches that the true hope for the nation lies not with the people remaining in the land, but with the community that has gone into captivity.
