Jeremiah was one of the Major Prophets of the Old Testament (Tanach), who has been given, in modern times, the title of the weeping prophet. This author has built a story around the prophet's book in the Bible, establishing a living situation where one can follow and imagine the mission life and personal life of this great prophet. It begins with developing his story from his birth and childhood and follows his life shown in the Bible, taking your imagination with it as it builds a story around his personal reactions as it moves along. Hopefully it will help the reader to see this man, this prophet of God, as a human being, living a normal life while he is delivering God's Divine message. Dr. James L.
