0:00.0 | Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble and I'm your host for the Bible Recap. |
0:07.0 | Today's reading covers three separate instances where Jeremiah has run-ins with |
0:17.1 | local leadership. The first story may have felt familiar to you. God sends Jeremiah |
0:22.0 | to the people entering the temple. This fills a to being repeated here in this trio of examples of Jeremiah's struggle with the authorities. |
