Jeremiah 33:24
Considerest thou not what this people have spoken, saying, The two families which the Lord hath chosen, he hath even cast them off? thus they have despised my people, that they should be no more a nation before them.

Study Note
God challenges Jeremiah to consider whether the people's claim — that God has 'rejected the two families' (Judah and Israel) — represents a true reading of covenantal history. The verse is embedded in the 'Book of Consolation' (Jeremiah 30–33), where promises of restoration systematically answer the despair of exile. The response (verses 25–26) grounds national renewal in the constancy of creation — if day and night can be counted on, so can God's covenant with David and the Levitical priests — anticipating New Testament arguments about divine faithfulness in Romans 11.
