Summary: The study offers both accessible and deeply relevant to the particularities of an African context. In a series of 10 selected passages, Dr Katho demonstrates the many parallels between Jeremiah's Judah and a continent that continues to experience the complex and devastating realities of poverty, injustice and war. Katho reminds us, however, that Jeremiah is also an exercise in imagination. It is a book of hope and Katho, like Jeremiah, dares to dream past the present into a future where God is known and humans flourish.
