Yet, in the midst of this loss and in hope of the restoration of God's people, Jeremiah is able to declare: \"The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness\" (Lam 3:22-23).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReflecting on these verses, Reformation commentators, who were themselves familiar with the turbulent realities of their own sixteenth century, heard not only hope for the renewal of Israel, but prophetic promise for the coming of the Messiah. Lutheran theologian and pastor Nikolaus Selnecker wrote, \"Is not what Jeremiah says immeasurably beautiful, lovely, and consoling? You will think, what is my soul saying to me? That is a strong Amen, when the spirit of the heart knows and can say, 'God hears me, I know it. My heart tells me. I do not doubt God's grace. I am a child of God.

Drawing upon a variety of resources—including commentaries, sermons, treatises, and confessions—much of which appears here for the first time in English, this volume provides resources for contemporary preachers, enables scholars to better understand the depth and breadth of Reformation commentary, and seeks to help everyone remember that God's mercies never come to an end.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"IVP Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":13295386165291,"sku":"9780830829613","price":85.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2773\/2624\/products\/9780830829613-rcs-jeremiah-lamentations-tyler.jpg?v=1600050655"},{"product_id":"9781527102316-isaiah-vol-2-chapters-28-66-a-mentor-commentary-house-paul-r","title":"Isaiah Vol 2: Chapters 28-66: A Mentor Commentary","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExpected to ship early Jan 2019\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are many academic commentaries, but very few hold to an inerrant view of Scripture as Mentor commentaries do.
