| | Jeremiah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Jeremiah or Yirmiyáhu (יִרְמְיָהוּ "Raised-up/Appointed of the LORD", Standard Hebrew Yirməyáhu, Tiberian Hebrew Yirməyāhû) (or, perhaps meaning "YHWH throws") was one of the "greater prophets" of the Old Testament, and the son of Hilkiah, a priest of Anathoth. |  | | This "New Covenant" prophecy of Jeremiah was fulfilled by Jesus the Messiah at the Passover seder, which has become since known as "the Last Supper", and "the new spirit" prophecy was fulfilled on the Day of Pentecost, described by Luke the Evangelist in the book of Acts of the Apostles. |  | | Jeremiah is also famous as "the broken-hearted prophet" (who wrote or dictated a "broken book", which has been difficult for scholars to put into chronological order), whose heart-rending life, and true prophecies of dire warning went largely-unheeded by the people of Judah. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Jeremias |
 | | The prophet of the eleventh hour, he had the hard mission, on the eve of the great catastrophe of Sion, of proclaiming the decree of God that in the near future the city and temple should be overthrown. |  | | This distinguishes his personality from that of Isaias, the prophet of ecstasy and the Messianic future, of Ezechiel, the prophet of mystical (not typical) suffering, and of Daniel, the cosmopolitan revealer of apocalyptic visions of the Old Covenant. |  | | No prophet belonged so entirely to his age and his immediate surroundings, and no prophet was so seldom transported by the Spirit of God from a dreary present into a brighter future than the mourning prophet of Anathoth. |

 | | Jeremiah was the Prophet sent by God to king Zedekiah of Jerusalem, who had broken God's Covenant, to warn him to return to keeping The Covenant or God would send king Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon to lay siege to and destroy Jerusalem. |  | | Jeremiah hid with Zedekiah's daughter Teia Tephi in a cave under The Holy Temple, built by Solomon, on the site where Abraham had offered to sacrifice Isaac, where The Ark of The Covenant was hidden along with Jacob's Pillar, the Bethel / Lia Fail Stone, which is king David's Throne of Israel. |  | | Oldcastle, Royal Meath in Ireland is the Tomb of Jeremiah the Bible Prophet who was commissioned by God to tear down; uproot (from Jerusalem) and plant (in Ireland) the daughter (the Tender Twig - Teia Tephi), from the line of David (symbolised in Scripture as the High Cedar), of king Zedekiah, in c. |

 | | Jeremiah’s response is to proclaim that Shemaiah is not a prophet of God and will be killed. |  | | Jeremiah’s response in vs. 18 then is not just vengeance on his enemi es, but a plead with God to fulfill what he had revealed. |  | | The wise men, scribes, prophets, and even priests were softening the blow of God’s condemnation by saying that peace was imminent. |

| | J. Toppe. Jeremiah: Prophet of the LORD's Judgement |
 | | Jeremiahs father, Hilkiah, was a priest at Anathoth. |  | | Jeremiah was unaware apparently of the extent of their hatred towards him, save that the LORD revealed it to him to protect him from their scheming (and perhaps Jeremiah was aware of their general attitude towards him: "Do not prophesy in the name of the LORD or you will die by our hands," (11:21)). |  | | Jeremiah spoke of how the people broke the covenant made with the LORD (11:1-17), a covenant that brought curses for those who did not keep it. |

| | Jeremiah, Prophet |
 | | The message was repeated by many prophets yet the people of Judah didn’t seem to see any clear distinction between their worship of the real God and their worship of false gods. |  | | Jeremiah says “The prophets all practice deceit, they dress the wound of my people as though it were not serious. |  | | The people, during Jeremiah’s time were engaging in various pagan ceremonies brought in from the pagan worship of the nations around them and yet they still clung to the concept of a chosen people, the favored of heaven. |

 | | In addition to functioning as a prophet, Jeremiah was a descendant of the priests of Anathoth, the son of a certain Hilkiah. |  | | Attributed to the prophet Jeremiah, this book is either appended to the larger collection of his writings (LXX, English Bibles) or placed with the other "Writings" (Hebrew Bible). |  | | The fact that God chose a soft-hearted prophet to deliver a message of doom and destruction to His people is significant. |

| | THE PROPHET JEREMIAH |
 | | Jeremiah compares Israel to an ungrateful whore who abandoned the blessing of God Allmighty, seeking the thrill of disappointing strangers. |  | | Continues with the most powerful statement of dedication, destiny, and raison d'etre: Jermeiah hears God's words that confirm that Jeremiah's very life and existence is based on a divine plan and a Godly aim. |  | | God was predisposed to forgiveness, but Israel went further and further astray, worshipping foreign idols, and now Israel would pay several generation coming. |

| | Khidr in the Islamic Tradition |
 | | Since Moses in the Islamic tradition is regarded as a prophet as well as a messenger; bearer of the divine commandments, and conveyer of God’s truth to his people, his seeking of knowledge from a non-prophet does not fit the criterion of the divine wisdom given to all prophets. |  | | A prophet is rahma of God as well as a bearer of the knowledge given to none other than prophets. |  | | Khidr is one of the four prophets whom the Islamic tradition recognizes as being ‘alive’ or ‘immortal’. |

 | | We have already seen that the prophet himself was frequently imprisoned and along with its king, the people of Judah were warned that captivity and exile awaited them (e.g., 10:17-18). |  | | For Jeremiah, this meant especially the reigns of Jehoiakim, Jehoiachin, and Zedekiah during the latter part of his prophetic activity (ca.609-586 B.C.E.). |  | | In Jeremiah 32:3-5 we read that King Zedekiah of Judah imprisoned the prophet because of his announcement that Nebuchadnezzar, king of the Babylonians, would overtake Jerusalem and take the Judahite king into captivity (this eventually happened; see 39:4-7). |

 | | Jeremiah is speaking of a future event which the Jews misunderstood as the first coming, which is why they rejected Jesus Christ, because He did not fulfill this and similar prophecies 2,000 years ago. |  | | The prophet Jeremiah is another one who shows us that the Messiah's intention is to come back and rule and reign in the land. |  | | The prophets of old also spoke of this second coming of the Messiah. |

 | | One of the practical applications of this is that no prophet of God will allow anything in his life, whether good or evil, that will detract from his effective communication of his message. |  | | The life of a prophet reflects the particular message God has given him. |  | | God chooses His prophets, God prepares His prophets, God sends His prophets. |

| | Does Easter Glorify Christ? |
 | | The prophet Ezekiel was shown the following abominations that were practiced in Israel about 2,500 years ago. |  | | Listen to what the prophet Jeremiah wrote on this subject around 2,600 years ago. |  | | It is amazing how something as vile as the original Easter festivals could now be thought to glorify Jesus Christ. |
