It was mentioned alongside Isaiah and Ezekiel as one of the three major prophets whose words were discussed during the period of exile and whose books were read during this time. It was also discussed in relation to the temple and the people's unfaithfulness.
we're going to go through all of Isaiah, all of Ezekiel, all of Jeremiah and all the minor prophets as well.
I think it's Jeremiah who he's talking, he's preaching to the people and he's telling them, you can't just keep saying this is the temple of the Lord.
behold, I will send Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon, my servant, and will bring him against this land and against its inhabitants and against all these surrounding nations and will utterly destroy them and make them a horror, a thing to be hissed and everlasting ruin.
like Isaiah and Jeremiah.
He's speaking, they're speaking to us because we do the same stupid things that the God's chosen people did in the past.
