Narrative Parallelism and the “Jehoiakim Frame”: A Reading Strategy for Jeremiah 26-45

Narrative Parallelism and the “Jehoiakim Frame”: A Reading Strategy for Jeremiah 26-45

  • Semi-Technical
  • Gary E. Yates

This essay examines the literary structure and message of one section of the book of Jeremiah. The focus is on the largely narrative section in Jeremiah 26-Jeremiah 45. It suggests a strategy for a holistic reading of this section. The author hopes that this will contribute to a better understanding of the literary and theological unity of the book of Jeremiah as a whole. Yates' thesis is that the so-called Jehoiakim frame brackets and provides a grid for the interpretation of the whole of Jeremiah 26-45.

The harmony that exists between the various doctrines of the Christian faith is such that error in regard to any one of them produces more or less distortion in all of the others. Loraine Boettner
