  Offers a narratological, intertextual reading of Jeremiah 37:1 to 40:6, a text that features the interaction between the prophet Jeremiah and King Zedekiah in the context of events surrounding the fall of Jerusalem. This book argues that the text develops complex images of both Zedekiah and Jeremiah, and invites sympathy and criticism for both.
