Klappentext This volume provides patristic comment on the text of Jeremiah and Lamentations. Zusammenfassung Among the apostolic fathers, Jeremiah was rarely cited, but several later authors give prominent attention to him. The fathers associated Lamentations with losses and death and saw the book as a description of the challenges that face Christians in a fallen world. In this ACCS volume, readers will gain insight and encouragement in the life of faith as seen through ancient pastoral eyes.
