- Synopsis
- The subject of this work is not the historical Jeremiah, but the 'persona' of the prophet presented by the book. A sensitive and illuminating treatment of metaphor, the nature of biography, and the function of the imagination combines with a close reading of several passages (Jer. 4; 8-10; 14.1-15.4; 17; 20) to illuminate the theological quality of the depiction of Jeremiah.
