Description
Summary:At the 1993 meeting of the South Africal society for Old Testament Studies time was devoted to Carroll's interpretation of Jeremiah and the manner in which he treated the so-called historical Jeremiah. This article is a brief discription of Carroll's views in this regard. It is stated that Carroll's commentary should not be used to search for the historical Jeremiah. Apparently such a person did not exist, or put differently: in the book of Jeremiah clear traces of such a historical person and his 'ipsissima verba ' are lacking. Carroll's commentary has other aims in mind amongst others to descriptionbe the ideologies at work in the formation of the book of Jeremiah.
