Jeremiah is the 24th book of the Bible, and it consists of 52 chapters and 1364 verses. Jeremiah, the prophet, authored the text; therefore, the book has his name. The book is predominantly about the disobedience and punishment of the kingdom of Judah.
Jeremiah is one of the Old Testament's major prophets, and he prophesied during the reign of Josiah, Jehoahaz, Jehoiakim, Jehoiachin, and Zedekiah. Jeremiah authored the books of Jeremiah and Lamentations. He was chosen by God even before he was born. Jeremiah was not allowed to marry; therefore, he was devoted to doing the work of the Lord. Jeremiah often received prophecies of some of the punishments that would befall Judah before they happened; therefore, he cried a lot, and the weeping prophet became his nickname. In the New Testament, he's known as Jeremy and Jeremias.
