The Book is an Intentional, Actual Unity

Scholarly Criticism has attacked the book of Jeremiah and argues with a unified voice that it was written in a number of different pieces and forms and then the parts of it were gathered and collated by different people at different times and so its final form is a patchwork of these records as arranged by the efforts and whims of the compilers.


This blog is strongly opposed to such views.

This blog is moving forward with the belief that: The Book of Jeremiah is a unity - it is planned and purposefully arranged - there is nothing hodgepodge, mishmash, nor willynilly about it.


And if this assumption is true, then it should be possible (as with any good literature) to uncover much of the plan, the purposeful arrangement, and possibly grapple successfully with intentions of the original author.

This is the gold mine that this blog is working on.
