The Fast of Gedaliah Part 2: The Poor Man Who Saved a City - English only. Today, Sunday, October 6, 2024, we commemorate the Fast of Gedaliah. Who was Gedaliah you ask? It should not be surprising if most people do not recall who Gedaliah was. He could not save Jerusalem from Nebuchadnezzar, the mighty king of the Babylonian Empire. The Scriptures also speak of another man who DID save a city, yet his story ends in the same way as the story of Gedaliah. No one remembers him either! This is a rebroadcast of a September 2022 sermon from our archives.
