Not illustrated. 1875 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XIX. THE LESSONS OF HIS LIFE. Y task is nearly, though not quite, done. I have said that Jeremiah is the prophet for our times; and it remains that we attempt to gather up some of the lessons which our survey of his history presents. One of the greatest of the Hebrew prophets, he speaks not to the Jews only, but also to the Gentiles, and not only to the age in which he lived, but to each succeeding age, and specially, as it would appear, to ours. For ours is a restless age. Men are dissatisfied, and are longing for something, though they know not what, which shall tranquillise their spirits and give them quietness and repose. As in the days of Jeremiah, they are asking, Is there any message from the Lord? and yet many of them are indisposed to listen to the answer when it is given, and some even doubt whether there is any answer, or can be any. Others, are saying, "Speak unto us smooth things; prophesy deceits;" and they are glad to be soothed by the facts of science, and the arguments of those who speak of evolution, and would repel as contrary to reason the truths of revelation, --and especially the prophecies and miracles of the Bible. Is it not a fact that thousands try to believe that Christianity is untrue because they wish it to be untrue ?--a characteristic this of the Jewish people in the days of Jeremiah, who believed the false prophets and the doctrines which they taught, because they loved to have it so. Equally true is it that another class of persons are being led away by pompous ceremonials, ] and who, thinking themselves the temple of the Lord, or calling by this name their edifices of stone, are putting their trust in outward rites, which, in their estimation, are the more valuable and efficacious the more they...

Book Description
Jeremiah and Lamentations tell the story of God's judgment during a bleak period in Judah's history. While painting a vivid picture of human loneliness and suffering, these Old Testament books also reveal the beautiful hope found only in God. This twelve-lesson Bible study begins with a thorough examination of Jeremiah, one of the most autobiographical books in the Bible. By studying the “weeping prophet” and his faithfulness to his calling, who or what you obey will become clearer. The final chapter examines Lamentations, its lyrical style, and the deep sorrow its life-changing lessons convey. Includes: • 12 lessons • Questions for group discussions or personal reflection • Study aids

Book Description
The prophet Jeremiah is a supreme example of how believers can live well in a society that has turned against God. While the book of Jeremiah chronicles the last, desperate days of Jerusalem before it is conquered by an invading army, Lamentations expresses the cries of Jeremiah’s heart for the fallen city. Together, the two books reflect on the meaning of human suffering and illustrate the eternal principle that a man will reap what he sows. In this commentary, Philip Graham Ryken helps pastors, church leaders, and Bible teachers understand and teach these spiritually relevant books, inspiring readers to respond to God’s personal call to live for him in these troubled times. Part of the Preaching the Word series.
