The Prophet Jeremiah addressed the people of Judah and Jerusalem
over a forty-year period leading up to the destruction of Jerusalem
in 587 BC. The book of Jeremiah addressed the exiles, especially
those in Babylon, in the years after the catastrophe. First of all
then, says Chris Wright, we must encounter Jeremiah the prophet
who, from his youth to old age, delivered the word of God to the
people of Israel at the most terrifying time in all their troubled
history. Understanding his times is essential to understanding his
life and message. Next, we must strive to grasp how this enormous
book (the second longest in the Bible, after Psalms) has been put
together. And finally, if Jeremiah spoke in his day, and if the
book still speaks today, in both cases it is because of the God who
called the man to speak and commanded the book to be written. So we
must encounter the God of Jeremiah, an encounter that should be
both profoundly disturbing and ultimately reassuring, as it was for
him. In the end, Jeremiah is a book of the victory of God's love
and grace. His redemptive, reconstructive work fills the book's
future horizon - a future that we see fulfilled in the New
Testament through the life, death and resurrection of Jesus, the
Messiah; and ultimately in God's dwelling with his redeemed people
forever in the new creation.
