Jeremiah 08 General Notes
Structure and formatting
Some translations indent each line of poetry to make it easier to read. The ULB does this with the poetry in 8:5-22.
The prophecy revealed to Jeremiah is recorded in 8:5-9:12. Despite covering more than one chapter, this should be seen as one unit. (See: rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/prophet and rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/reveal)
Important figures of speech in this chapter
