Jeremiah

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Only an experienced specialist like Jack Lundbom can present the difficult book of Jeremiah in such a succinct and engaging manner, outlining the trajectory from God's promise and his powerful Word to the international orientation and lasting hope therein, and all set against the background of Israelite history and the biblical traditions. The book is well presented to engage today's readers, with references to relevant political and historical situations, reflections, questions, and connections with the New Testament.”

Vast as the Sea

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Hebrew poetry as a lifeguard in the turbulent, roaring waters of human existence--this is what Hildebrandt makes us see. He shows us a delicacy for those appreciating the Bible, consolation and help for all seeking orientation, and new strength in their various struggles on earth with anxieties, loneliness, and despair but also hope, imagination, and creative language.”

More than twenty-five years of his research on this prophet come alive in this new book, a collection of articles on important topics, like the rhetoric of the book of Jeremiah, the new covenant, and the figure of Jeremiah's confident Baruch. Lundbom's essays cover a wide horizon, ranging from questions regarding textual criticism to his experiences writing the Anchor Bible commentary.”
