""Jack Lundbom has long since established himself as a foremost interpreter of Jeremiah, capable of a rich flow of technical erudition. . . . He is a reliable interpreter who invites the reader into the key issues and claims of the text. This book is a chapter-by-chapter exposition with a conclusion that reflects on the scribal formation of the book of Jeremiah. Lundbom shows the reader the compelling ways in which this ancient tradition merits our continuing attention."" --Walter Brueggemann, Columbia Theological Seminary ""A condensation of a lifetime of research and study . . . by one of the world's leading Jeremiah authorities. First-rate scholarship clearly and concisely presented, and readily accessible to the ordinary but earnest Bible student."" --Craig E. Anderson, Retired Pastor/Associate Superintendent, Evangelical Covenant Church ""Jack Lundbom's mastery of Jeremiah scholarship is presented in this book. He has skillfully distilled the book of Jeremiah into twenty thematic essays . . . in a manner accessible to beginning students and general readers. This book is for everyone who wants to learn about Jeremiah as one of the truly great prophets in ancient Israel."" --Shirley Ma, student at Luther Seminary
