In this lesson we begin our study of chapter three. Where chapter two deals with God\\u2019s judgment from the standpoint of how severe and all-consuming \\u2013 and personal - His wrath is, chapter three speaks from the counter-point of God\'s mercy that tempers His judgments.

\\n

Chapter three\'s shows a change in observational standpoint. In what could be considered a "personal psalm", Jeremiah supposes that the catastrophic destruction of Jerusalem would have been total, had it not been for the intervention of the mercy and faithfulness in God\'s nature, especially toward his covenant people.

Join us as we see Jeremiah\'s chronicle start to change its tone from shear lamentation to that that of hope for him and his people.
