This is the word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh

"Yahweh spoke to Jeremiah". See how you translated this in Jeremiah 1:2.

in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar

"after Zedekiah had been king of Judah for more than nine years and Nebuchadnezzar had been king for more than seventeen years". The king should have listened to the prophet Jeremiah and repented of his sin. Instead, he objected to his message and was punished by Yahweh.The term "Israel" is used exclusively in reference to the nation of Israel.
