John Goldingay's volume is a recent, full-length treatment of Jeremiah running to more than a thousand pages. It follows the prophet's call and reluctance, the sustained indictment of Judah's covenant breaking, the temple sermon, the confrontations with kings and rival prophets, the promise of a new covenant written on the heart, the oracles against the nations, and the siege and destruction of Jerusalem, with close work on a notoriously difficult Hebrew text.

The New International Commentary on the Old Testament is a standard evangelical series working from the Hebrew text, with the author's own translation, detailed notes on language and background, and sustained attention to the theology of each book. This replaced an older volume in the series and reflects current discussion of the book. It suits pastors preaching a long prophetic series, students needing a current reference, and readers who want to understand a prophet whose ministry looked like failure for forty years.
