Jeremiah Volume 2 and Lamentations: Chapters 21-52 (Daily Study Bible)

In this volume Robert Davidson examines Jeremiahs uncomfortable relationship with the political and religious establishments of his day. He guides us through the prophecies given in the last years of Jerusalem the account of the fall of Jerusalem the oracles against foreign nations and a final historical appendix. In discussing Lamentations Davidson states that in this biblical book are found not only moving and passionate expressions of grief and sorrow but also of faith.. Such faith was only possible for those who took seriously what Jeremiah had all along said about the inevitable working out of Gods judgment upon Jerusalem.Carrying forward brilliantly the pattern established by Barclays New Testament series the Daily Study Bible has been extended to cover the entire Old Testament as well. Invaluable for individual devotional study for group discussion and for classroom use the Daily Study Bible provides a useful reliable and eminently readable way to discover what the Scriptures were saying then and what God is saying today.
