Exalting Jesus in Jeremiah, Lamentation (Christ-Centered Exposition Commentary | CCE)
Overview
Exalting Jesus in Jeremiah, Lamentations is part of the Christ-Centered Exposition Commentary series. Edited by David Platt, Daniel L. Akin, and Tony Merida, this new commentary series, projected to be 48 volumes, takes a Christ-centered approach to expositing each book of the Bible. Rather than a verse-by-verse approach, the authors have crafted chapters that explain and apply key passages in their assigned Bible books.
Readers will learn to see Christ in all aspects of Scripture, and they will be encouraged by the devotional nature of each exposition presented as sermons and divided into chapters that conclude with a “Reflect & Discuss” section, making this series ideal for small group study, personal devotion, and even sermon preparation. It’s not academic but rather presents an easy reading, practical and friendly commentary.
The author of Exalting Jesus in Jeremiah, Lamentations is Steven Smith.
- Seeks to display exegetical accuracy
- Offers helpful illustrations and theologically-driven applications
- Provides a commentary that busy pastors can use for weekly preparation of biblically faithful and gospel-saturated sermons
Top Highlights
“In a word, God is judging them for being unfaithful—unfaithful to a God who is always faithful” (Page 6)
“Jeremiah might identify with being the enforcer. He was just a man, yet this man had the unenviable position of being called to deliver the message of pending justice, and because he was the agent of the law, some people treated him terribly.” (Page 3)
“Every sin is indeed a choice, but the inertia of disobedience is real. This is why sin is so scary: it’s hard to stop once it begins. Like a mutant alien from a bad sci-fi movie, it reproduces until it destroys.” (Page 281)
“Brokenness is a state of awareness of our sinfulness and inability in light of God’s presence” (Page 120)
“ what God has demonstrated to me. The depth of sin reminds me of the height of grace” (Page 33)

Trying to understand pre-pub concept. We appreciate offering the discount on quality work for us with limited budgets. But ... When will it be available? You bar under the price says "in production" but doesn't give an indication of date. Where do I go on this mammoth site to find such help? Jim
