The Book Of Lamentationsn [ Audio Bible ] ESV #audiobible #Lamentations #bibleinayear
Introduction to Lamentations
Author and Date
The author of this literary masterpiece is unknown. Lamentations provides eyewitness testimony of Babylon’s destruction of Jerusalem in 586 B.C. in vivid, poetic detail. It was likely written between 586 and 516 B.C., with an early date being more probable.
Theme
The key passage in Lamentations is 3:19-24, which affirms that belief in God’s mercy and faithfulness is the key to a restored relationship with God. Forgiveness is possible even for people who have deserved God’s judgment (1:18). Hope, not despair, is the central theme in Lamentations.
Purpose
Lamentations was most likely written to be prayed or sung in worship services devoted to asking God’s forgiveness. Such services began as early as the months after the temple’s destruction in 586 B.C. (Jer. 41:4-5). They continued after the temple was rebuilt during Zechariah’s time (c. 520 B.C.; see Zech. 7:3-5; 8:19). In later years, Lamentations was read and sung as part of annual observances marking the temple’s destruction.
Key Themes
Lamentations presents many key theological realities from an important era in Israel’s history:
It includes memorable prayers that confess sin, express renewed hope, and declare total dependence on God’s grace.
It is the only book in the Bible written by a person who actually lived through the divine judgment the Bible often refers to as “the day of the Lord” (see Joel 2:1-2; Amos 5:18; Zeph. 1:14-16).
It provides great insight into the nature of pain, sin, and redemption.
Like so many other OT passages, Lamentations teaches that Jerusalem fell:
a. because of the people’s sins (1:18);
b. because they rejected God’s word sent through the prophets (2:8, 14, 17);
c. because their leaders led them astray (4:13).
It affirms God’s never-ceasing mercy (3:19-24; compare Deut. 30:1-10). Readers can know that God never gives up on his people, even when they sin greatly.
Lamentations agrees with the Psalms that prayer is the way to restore a broken relationship with God. It also shares the Psalms’ emphasis on God’s sovereignty (see Ps. 103:19).
Like many of the prophets, Lamentations warns of the “day of the Lord.” This is the day when God judges sin. That day has already occurred in historical events like the destruction of Jerusalem in 586 B.C. It will occur again at the end of time as the final “day of the Lord.” People need to take seriously the warnings about such days of judgment.

มุมมอง 253 หลายเดือนก่อน
Introduction to Jeremiah Author and Date Jeremiah was called to be a prophet c. 627 B.C., when he was young (1:6). He served for more than 40 years (1:2-3). Jeremiah had a difficult life. His messages of repentance delivered at the temple were not well received (7:1-8:3; 26:1-11). His hometown plotted against him (11:18-23), and he endured much persecution (20:1-6; 37:11-38:13; 43:1-7). At God’...

Introduction to Isaiah Author and Date Isaiah was called to his prophetic ministry “in the year that King Uzziah died” (6:1), around 740 B.C. He lived long enough to record the death of Sennacherib (37:38), in 681. However, most of the book can be dated only in very general terms because few specific dates are given.

Introduction to The Song of Solomon Author and Date The wording of the first verse in Song of Solomon (or Song of Songs; 1:1) does not necessarily mean that Solomon wrote the book. It may have been written by Solomon himself, or it could have been written in his honor. When he is mentioned (1:5; 3:7, 9, 11; 8:11-12), it is generally as a distant, even idealized figure. What is known about Solom...

Introduction to Ecclesiastes Author The author of Ecclesiastes calls himself “the Preacher” (1:1). Some interpreters have concluded that this was Solomon, while others think he was a role-playing writer later than Solomon. Either way, the book claims that its wisdom comes from the “one Shepherd” (12:11), the Lord himself. Theme and Interpretation of Ecclesiastes The theme of Ecclesiastes is the...

Introduction to Proverbs Author and Date Proverbs itself mentions Solomon (reigned c. 971-931 B.C.) as author or collector of its contents (1:1; 10:1), including the proverbs copied by Hezekiah’s men (25:1). There are also two batches of sayings from a group called “the wise” (22:17-24:22; 24:23-34), and “oracles” from Agur (30:1-33) and Lemuel (31:1-9). No author is named for the song in prais...

Introduction to The Psalms Author and Date Individual psalms come from diverse periods of Israel’s history, but at every stage they served as the songbook of God’s people. David wrote about half of the Psalms. His role as king was more than that of a ruler. He was to represent and even embody the people, and their well-being was tied to his faithfulness. David, then, writes as a representative,...

Introduction to Job Author and Date The unknown Israelite author of this book presents Job as a person living in Uz (see note on 1:1). Job’s godliness (1:1) matches the ideals of Israelite wisdom literature. He clearly knows Yahweh (1:21). The events of the book seem to be set in the times of the patriarchs (Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob). Theological Themes The book of Job concerns itself with the...

Introduction to Esther Author and Date Like many OT books, Esther is an anonymous work. It is possible that the author was someone like Mordecai, who had access to historical documents (2:23; 6:1) and an interest in Jewish affairs.

Introduction to Ezra Author and Date The book of Ezra never declares its author, and the book’s contents make it difficult to determine when it was written. Ezra 1-6 recounts events that occurred long before Ezra’s time. Ezra 7:27-9:15 clearly comes from Ezra’s own hand, since it is written in the first person.

    So many have worldly ideologies of heaven, according to what they derive pleasures most from on earth. I’ve heard a few preachers address this where so many idea is sex, as preachers have spoke on this, But we are told there is no male or female in heaven. Being spirit, we may not need physical stimulation. We will find out one day.
