E17: Understanding the Old Testament Lecture 17: Jeremiah, Persecuted Prophet
The Great Courses Presents: Understanding the Old Testament | Lectures
Within the life and preaching of the prophet Jeremiah, study the book of Jeremiah, Chapter 7, regarding his “temple sermon” preaching against idolatry, injustice, and fraudulent worship. Witness the prophet’s response to his later persecution, and his struggle against his own call to be a prophet. Also read the hopeful prophecy in which God offers a new covenant to Israel, a covenant of forgiveness which will be everlasting.
