Volume 4 – The Darkness Deepens takes up the story at the end of the reign of King Jehoiakim – as his body is dumped outside the gates of Jerusalem, and his son Jeconiah reigns briefly over a city under siege.
"Nebuchadnezzar’s army surrounded Jerusalem, preventing any from coming or going, patiently and methodically strangling the life from a beleaguered city in which supplies, once used,
could not be replaced."
Jeconiah surrenders and King Nebuchadnezzar takes him to Babylon – as Jeremiah had predicted – along with thousands of others.
Zedekiah promises to be Nebuchadnezzar’s vassal, but is weak and easily led. Will he listen to Jeremiah or to his advisors?
Can Jeremiah survive the sly schemes of his enemies or will the promised disaster overtake them all?
In Judah, the darkness is deepening.
The series: Terror on Every Side!
This series leads you through the exciting life of Jeremiah the priest as he worked for God in ancient Israel. As well as being a priest, Jeremiah was also a prophet of God for over 40 years, always warning of judgement which was to come on the nation of Judah and all the nations around. Few would listen at all, and fewer still would take him seriously. Jeremiah lived to see the fulfillment of most of these prophecies, but many of those he spoke to did not.
