Jeremiah Introduction

JeremiahSteve Gregg
In this introduction to the book of Jeremiah, Steve Gregg explains that the book is easier to understand than Isaiah, even though it covers a challenging period of time. During the darkest spiritual season of Judah, Assyria was threatening the kingdom. Jeremiah was a prophet who groaned, wept, and cried as he confronted the hypocrisy of the people during the nation's siege by Babylonians. Unlike some other prophets, he was not married and did not have children in Jerusalem.
