In this episode of Obscure Christian Beliefs, we look at recent discoveries that help us understand the mysterious prophet Jeremiah.

In his prophetic book, chapter 15 verse 17, he writes "I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of thy hand: for thou hast filled me with indignation".

We’re moving between ancient scripture and the dirt of the City of David. From the discovery of the clay seals belonging to Jeremiah's literal enemies to the crushing weight of "Trauma Theory," the prophet's sitting alone was a declaration of war against a corrupt elite.
