Jeremiah grew up in a time of peace and died in exile. He lived
to see the temple burned to the ground, Jerusalem destroyed, and
his people marched into a foreign land. A reluctant prophet,
Jeremiah preached the renewal of the covenant, teaching in parables
like Jesus. His God was a God of hope, promise, power, and the will
to make the people of Israel a holy people.
The book of Baruch deals with the challenges faced by the Jews
of the Diaspora who never returned to their homeland. Out of their
exile, they became the people of "the book" gathering in their
synagogues, studying the law and the prophets, and producing their
own inspired sacred literature.
