Jeremiah 8 read by David Alley, followed by comments and prayer. In Jeremiah 8 the prophet sees what is coming and his prophecy turns into poetry as with the use of parallelism he begins to weep and mourn over what is ahead. He weeps night and day, and we see why Jeremiah has become known as the weeping prophet. I remember clearly an experience of culture shock in Sri-Lanka which I couldn’t get out of my mind for days. Jeremiah is in shock over what he has seen, but also because his listeners ignore his warnings of peril.
