Jeremiah also describes the remnant returning as an immense throng. The faithful remnant of Israel was the seed from which the new People of God, the Church, began. In the Second Reading, from the Letter to the Hebrews, we are reminded that Jesus, our High Priest, became one of us to lead us on this journey of reconciliation.
