The Burden of the Lord

More about the book

Excerpt from The Burden of the Lord: Aspects of Jeremiah's Personality, Mission, and AgeThis volume, it is hardly necessary to say, is not intended for expert Old Testament scholars. A book of that sort is quite beyond my power. The object is sufficiently indicated by the sub-title. It is to exhibit certain aspects of Jeremiah's personality, of the work to which he gave his life, and of the age in which that work was done. If a reader were to feel that the presentation of these aspects yielded a fairly complete picture of a great man, and of his time and task, I should be more than satisfied.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
