The passage covers Jeremiah's prophetic call narrative: his lineage and the historical period spanning the reigns of Josiah through Zedekiah, culminating in Jerusalem's fall. Its theological core is God's claim to have known and consecrated Jeremiah as a prophet to the nations before his birth \u2014 one of scripture's most striking predestination statements \u2014 followed by Jeremiah's protest that he is too young to speak and God's overriding commission, symbolized by touching Jeremiah's mouth and placing divine words in it. The chapter closes with two visions \u2014 an almond branch (signaling God's watchfulness over his word) and a boiling pot tilted northward (foretelling invasion from the north) \u2014 and a mandate charge to Jeremiah to stand firm against kings, priests, and people, with God's promise that they will fight but not prevail against him. The parallel-column format serves a text-critical or comparative-study purpose, allowing readers to observe where the Greek Septuagint, Hebrew, Latin, and English traditions agree or diverge in vocabulary and emphasis. A reader would find this most useful for academic biblical study, translation comparison, or theological research into Jeremiah's call, rather than devotional reading.","tags":["Book of Acts","Greek New Testament","Polyglot Bible"],"text":null,"title":"Polyglot Bible: Jeremiah: Jeremiah 1","tradition":"Hypertext Bible","translated_text":null,"word_count":1651}
