	Gilead was famous for its healing medicine. Jeremiah asks a rhetorical question. The obvious answer is yes - God could heal them - but Israel was not applying the ''medicine, '' they were not obeying the LORD. Although the people's spiritual sickness was still very deep, it could be healed. But the people refused the medicine. God could heal their self-inflicted wounds, but He would not force His healing on them.		Gilead was famous for its healing medicine. Jeremiah asks a rhetorical question.

	These words vividly portray Jeremiah's emotion as he watched his people reject God. He responded with anguish to a world that is dying in sin. We watch that same world still dying in sin, still rejecting God. But how often do our hearts break for our lost friends and neighbors, our lost world? Only when we have Jeremiah's kind of passionate concern will we be moved to reach out. We must begin by asking God to break our hearts for the world He loves.
