Prophet Jeremiah
In this quarter 4, we are assigned to create a brief explanation about the prophet given by the teacher. We create a poster about our chosen prophet and create the presentation to explain about our chosen prophet. I did well in this assignment because i could create the poster with brief explanation in it and fulfill the criteria given by the teacher.
Occupation:a member of the priestly household of Hilkiah, priest at Anathoth
Hometown: Anathoth
Closest companion: Secretary, Baruch
Prophesying: Judah halfway through the reign of Josiah (640–609 b.c.) and continued throughout the reigns of Jehoahaz (609), Jehoiakim (609–598), Jehoiachin (598–597) and Zedekiah (597–586).
Meaning of his name:The meaning of his name is uncertain, but a more likely proposal is “The Lord throws,” either in the sense of “hurling” the prophet into a hostile world or of “throwing down” the nations in divine judgment for their sins.The Hebrew name Jeremiah apparently means "Exalted of the Eternal" or "Appointed by the Eternal." It may relate to the fact that the prophet was one of only a few people whom the Bible reveals to have been sanctified by God before birth for a special purpose
Prophetic Ministry:Jeremiah’s prophetic ministry began in 626 b.c. and ended sometime after 586
Family: The Lord commanded Jeremiah not to marry and raise children because the impending divine judgment on Judah would sweep away the next generation, Jeremiah is the son if Hilkiah of the tribe of Levi
Friends: Jeremiah attracted only a few friends, among whom were Ahikam (26:24), Gedaliah (Ahikam’s son, 39:14) and Ebed-Melech (38:7–13; cf. 39:15–18)
Personality: Jeremiah were his faith in God, devotion to prayer, faithfulness in fulfilling his calling, and unflinching courage in the face of hostility and danger. Jeremiah's life has parallels with the life of Christ, who was a "Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief"
I did well by explaining briefly the chosen prophet and explaining about the main problem of the prophet. I could improve it by collecting more specific details about the prophet and explain more about his life.
