Age of Jeremiah, part 3: Shouting into the Darkness

Jeremiah had one of the toughest jobs of anyone in the Bible.  God's intention to use Babylon punish the nation for their repeated and prolonged unfaithfulness, generation after generation, was set.  He was even told to stop praying for God to spare them.  Yet he was bound to preach the whole Word of God to a people that would not listen, who were bound for destruction.
