This quarter Phil Hartnady leads a study of the book of Jeremiah.
Jeremiah
- the weeping prophet
- forsake / forsaken X 24
- backsliding / backslider X 13
- return X 47
Key verses: 3:25, 6:13-16, 7:23-24, 7:28, 10:23, 20:9, 31:31-34
Key Chapter: 31, the coming of a Messiah that will bring a new covenant.
Jeremiah - weeping prophet - prophesied in Judah (Southern Kingdom) 7th Century BC. This book represents, like others, Gods timeless call to man to trust in him and not in themselves. He lived about 100 years after Isaiah and began his ministry about 626BC lasting until 586BC (60 years). World powers at his birth were Assyria and Egypt, and both were subdued by Babylon in his lifetime. Isaih saved Judiah from Assyria, Jeremiah tried to save them from Babylon, but was not successful. He foresaw Babylon's fall (51:64). Israel (Northern Kingdom) already carried away by Assyria, now Judiah stands alone. Jeremiah helps last good king (Josiah) in reformation of kingdom when book of the law is found. Josiah slain by Pharaoh Necro in 608BC, evil kings reign and hate Jeremiah. In 606 BC, Babylon conquer all, taking captives from Judah (including Daniel).
Jeremiah was young, devoutly religious, tenderhearted and uncommonly bold and courageous, one of the greatest preachers of his time. He foretold the fall of Judah to Babylon, and the return after 70 years of bondage. He spoke of the coming of "the Lord, Our Righteousness" (22:6, 33:16).
Lessons from Jeremiah:
- The problem of sin: 2:13, 5:30-31, 6:13, 3:25, 6:15, 7:4-7, 7:28
- The wages of sin: 13:9-10, 18:1-11, 19:1-15, 24:1-10
- God's plea... Amend your ways: 13:15, 3:12, 26:13
- Coming of a New Covenant: 31:27-34
- Personal Responsibility: 31:29-30
