Chapters 2-20: Judgment against Judah (Josiah to Nebuchadenezzar) Chapters 21-45: Judgment against Judah (Josiah’s sons to the captivity) Chapters 46-51: Judgment against the nations. Chapter 52: The Fall of Jerusalem.</p><p>“Big Ideas within the book of Jeremiah:</p><p> o Jeremiah is more ‘pastoral’ at times than he is ‘prophetic’ in his approach. o Throughout the prophecies judging the people, Jeremiah communicates the Gospel – the message of God’s New Covenant that will forgive our sins. o “Old Covenant vs. New Covenant” primary difference is in ‘strategy,’ because both were based on faith, not on works.
