In the Days of Jeremiah

A sweeping work of historical fiction rooted in the biblical world of Jeremiah - a prophet called to speak truth as Judah stood on the brink of destruction.In the Days of Jeremiah brings to life the final decades of Judah's kingdom, when the small nation found itself trapped between two empires: Egypt in decline and Babylon on the rise. Drawing from the biblical accounts in 2 Kings 22-25 and 2 Chronicles 34-36, this novel imagines how ordinary people - scribes and farmers, nobles and craftsmen, creditors and debtors - experienced the political upheaval, social injustice, and spiritual crisis of their age.At the center stands Jeremiah, a young priest from Anathoth whose prophetic calling collides with kings, priests, and the powerful families who shape Jerusalem's fate. His warnings are unwelcome. His message is resisted. Yet his words endure when kings and kingdoms fall.This is not a retelling of Scripture, nor an attempt at perfect reconstruction. It is intentional fiction - a story that seeks to illuminate the world Jeremiah spoke into, the pressures his generation faced, and the human cost of ignoring the covenant they claimed to uphold.Richly imagined and historically grounded, In the Days of Jeremiah invites readers to step inside one of the most turbulent eras of biblical history and to see the prophet's world through the eyes of the people who lived it.
