Mouth Full of Fire, A: The Word of God in the words of Jeremiah
Outline: In this stimulating study, the author examines Jeremiah's use of word language; the prophet's formation as an embodiment of the Word of God; his covenant preaching ad the crisis it precipitates concerning the recognition of true prophecy; and, in the 'oracles of hope', how the power of the Word of God is finally made manifest. The author, then brings this reading of Jeremiah to bear on some issues in contemporary theology, including the problem of divine agency and the doctrine of Scripture, and concludes by engaging Jeremiah's doctrine of the Word of God in conversation with Karl Barth. The prophet's major contribution emerges from his careful differentiation of 'word' and 'words'.
