Jeremiah prophesied during the last years of the kingdom of God, including the reign of the last king, Zedekiah, Jeremiah 1:3Waiting for response for Jeremiah 1:3 who sat upon the throne of the LORD in Jerusalem. Many people consider Jeremiah a gloomy prophet, but he spoke the word of God to the Jews in times of great distress when God brought upon them and the surrounding nations the recompense for their wickedness. Jeremiah gave them warning and exhortation to turn to righteousness, but they would not hear and they persecuted him. Nevertheless, God also inspired him to speak of the glorious future when Israel will return from their scattering and the kingdom of God will be restored under Christ.

The books of Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and Daniel speak beforehand of the Lord Jesus Christ and, like the four gospels, depict him in four aspects: as king, servant, son of man, and Son of God. Jeremiah depicts him as a servant.
