This covers chapters 1 - 25. Explores the historical setting and message of Jeremiah as well as the text's relevance for the church today. A fresh look at critical theological issues in the Jeremiah tradition. Argues that Jeremiah's voice compels us to rediscern our own situation vis a vis faith, obedience, justice and compassion. Excellent work
