Jeremiah 35:6

“The descendants of Jonadab son of Rekab have carried out the command their forefather gave them, but these people have not obeyed me.'”

Highlights the contrast between the obedience of the Rechabites and the disobedience of Judah.

“Then Jeremiah said to the family of the Rekabites, “This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: ‘You have obeyed the command of your forefather Jonadab and have followed all his instructions and have done everything he ordered.’ Therefore this is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: ‘Jonadab son of Rekab will never fail to have a descendant to serve me.’”
