In the time of the prophet Jeremiah, the city of Jerusalem was besieged and desperate. Jeremiah refused to sugarcoat this grim reality. Stung by the truth, city officials tried to kill him—but Ebed-melech, making a “shining cameo” as an unlikely hero, came to the rescue, acting with courage and compassion. Alistair Begg shows that Ebed-melech is both a model for us and a forerunner to the one who would come to our ultimate rescue: Jesus Christ.
