This week we are looking at Jeremiah 32: 1-15; 36-44. Yesterday we took a deeper look at who exactly an Old Testament prophet was, and we find that it is not really what we may have thought, the prophet doesn't so much predict the future; their calling is more about speaking the word of God at that particular time to a particular group of people. Now, there are always exceptions, but that is mainly what they would do. Each prophet is unique, some Isaiah had long times of proclamation and had access to the highest layers of power within the kingdom. Others like Amos arose, said what they had to say, and then quietly went back to what they were doing before.
