An exegetical and thematic study of selected texts from the Book of Jeremiah. Attention will be devoted to reading through historical and cultural contexts, through critical lenses (such as trauma/disaster, postcolonial, and feminist approaches), and in incorporating global voices, past and present. The primary goal of the course will be to provide the student with a foundation for further study and application within the church. Prerequisite: BIBL 0501. Recommended: OLDT 0511.
