Summary

Here is one of the bravest, and most tender, yet most pathetic figures in all history: a patriot as well as a prophet. He is known as the "Weeping Prophet": he watched his nation decline and finally fall under God's judgment. During Jeremiah's 40 years of ministry, he never received a hint of gratitude. As one of the most important of the "Major Prophets," Jeremiah is a rich, rewarding study. It is full of surprises, deeply touching episodes, and extremely moving reading. It is also, in many ways, profoundly timely for us today! The book of Lamentations is also included on this commentary. The book of Lamentations is a complete book in itself, a five-chapter book that is sort of an appendix to the book of Jeremiah. The book of Lamentations is his outpouring, where he essentially mourns for Jerusalem. The poor guy on the one hand was faithful in his office as a prophet, he told forth what God had told him to tell forth, and Jerusalem was going to be judged for her iniquity. On the other hand, Jeremiah was a patriot, his roots were there and his emotional commitment to Judah was absolutely uncompromising. This study contains 22 hours of verse by verse teachings.

0:45.0	Yeah. chapters two through five. For of old have I broken thy yoke and burst thy bands, that is, he delivered them from
0:49.2	Egypt, right?
0:50.5	And now says, I will not transgress.
0:52.5	That's a reference to Sinai when the law was given, and Israel said, hey, we'd keep it.
0:57.2	When upon every high hill and under every green tree thou wanderest playing the harlot.
1:05.5	Now this will become more vivid if you have background in the Canaanite worship,
1:10.1	which was basically preoccupied with
1:14.7	sex and fertility rights, typically practice on hills and typically practiced in what's called

1:30.3	These are typically carved to become phallic symbols.
