The Early Career of the Prophet Jeremiah

This study continues the effort to map out an early career for Jeremiah. There exists an abundance of background material: chronological notices historical and biographical reports and a collection of oracles and prophetic utterances of other descriptions as well as a wealth of relevant non-biblical texts. This book describes both the traditional and nontraditional views of Jeremiah and then presents the view that Jeremiahs career begins not before nor after but at the height of the Josianic reform that is in 622 BC.
