Jottings on Jeremiah

I have just started doing some devotional reading of, and reflection on, Jeremiah, a Bible book of which I have to confess I am woefully ignorant. As I find it helpful for my own discipline and focus to make notes of what I read and learn, I thought I would share some of them here and will probably post some jottings most days. These will not form a detailed commentary but just highlight what I have gleaned and learned along the way.
