Let's jump into one of the funniest and most eerie lines from Jeremiah 26:17: "Jeremiah said to me, 'Your father was a prophet, and your mother also a prophet; but you are a prophet beyond their time.'" If someone had told you that, would you believe them? Now, let's give an edgy example of how this phrase could be used in real life: "Once upon a time, I was on a long trip through the desert. At one point, as we approached a river, I noticed a strange sight - it seemed to be flowing out of nowhere, and its flow seemed to be changing direction every few minutes." You may think "Jeremiah 26:17" is too literal for such an idiomatically surreal situation. However, with a little creativity, you can use this phrase in a way that's both humorous and disturbing. Example: "When you're feeling down, just remember Jeremiah 26:17 - 'Your father was a prophet, and your mother also a prophet; but you are a prophet beyond their time.'"
