This work presents a literary interpretation of Babylon in the book of Jeremiah MT. It moves beyond historical-critical approaches, which have long dominated Jeremiah research, and shows that metaphor is central to a synchronic reading of the book. The study shows that Babylon is a multi-layered metaphor: at one level it is the archetypal enemy of both Judah and its God; at another level it is metaphorically identified with Judah. The study also explores the idea of the unended exile, and shows how this idea, so central to post-exilic Judaism, is also found in the book of Jeremiah MT.

It had been several years since Peter had delivered God''s message at Pentecost. The audience had come from all over the world. There was nothing novel in the message - it consisted of things any good Jewish person would have known from their childhood. The difference was that this message was accompanied by the power of God''s Spirit. After our Lord''s ascension into heaven (Acts 1.11), Peter labored for his Savior tirelessly to the point of death. He understood well the urgency of the times and he desired to pass that along to as many believers as possible. These two epistles show Peter''s efforts in stirring up those who had been stirred up at Pentecost - at the birth of the Body of Christ.
