Lamentations 1:1-3:51

9/6/2019

Lamentations is a book that sticks real close to the title. It’s a lament over the destruction of Jerusalem and the exile of the people. Tradition says that Jeremiah wrote the book and that is a real possibility but it is impossible to tell from the text itself. Jeremiah is in a strange place because he has been vindicated but the vindication came at the price of total destruction. Lamentations is a great title for this work.

This blog was originally written by Pastor Doug Bartel of Hillcrest Church, starting in Spring 2009. Keep that in mind if you read anything that doesn't quite add up to the time of year.

Come journey with us as we read through the Bible in a year. It is our desire to hear what God wants from us and to know his promises as well as warnings. Each day we will read a text and together we will share what we are learning and encourage one another to finish the goal!
