In this double-header episode, Kenneth reflects on the two books that immediately follow the Book of Jeremiah in the Old Testament of the Roman Catholic Bible, the Book of Lamentations and the Book of Baruch. How are these books connected, what do they tell us about this part of Israel's history, and how can they speak to our faith lives today?

Have you read the Book of Lamentations or the Book of Baruch? Do you tend to go back to the same books in Scripture or do you occasionally try venturing into lesser known books like these two?
