Making Jeremiah Plain. A must for every Book of Mormon, Gospel Doctrine, Seminary, or Institute teacher and student. Making Jeremiah Plain is an essential new study guide for the confusing story and words of the prophet Jeremiah. This volume is without question, the most helpful guide to Jeremiah available today. It unravels the chronological mess that was created when Jeremiah’s chapters were scattered, then recovered in confusing non-chronological order by scribes in ancient Israel. Dr. Randal S. Chase, a veteran CES and Institute instructor, unravels the chronological puzzle and provides insights into the culture, language, meaning, and chronology of the writings of Jeremiah in a relaxed and understandable style. The stories, quotes, examples, maps and illustrations are unequaled in any other reference guide of its kind in print today. Readers will find themselves gaining insights and understanding from Jeremiah that have eluded them before. The cover features “Jeremiah Lamenting the Destruction of Jerusalem,” painted in 1630 by Rembrandt.Table of Contents:Ch. Title Scripture Refs **Understanding Jeremiah41a.Jer.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor:
Randal S. Chase spent his childhood years in Nephi, Utah, where his father was a dry land wheat farmer and a businessman. In 1959 their family moved to Salt Lake City and settled in the Holladay area. He served a full-time mission in the Central British (England Central) Mission from 1968 to 1970. He returned home and married Deborah Johnsen in 1971. They are the parents of six children—two daughters and four sons—and an ever-expanding number of grandchildren. He was called to serve as a bishop at the age of twenty-seven in the Sandy Crescent South Stake area of the Salt Lake Valley. He served six years in that capacity and has since served as a high councilor, a stake executive secretary and clerk, and in many other stake and ward callings. Regardless of whatever other callings he has received over the years, one was nearly constant: he has taught Gospel Doctrine classes in every ward he has ever lived in as an adult—for a total of thirty-five years. Dr. Chase was a well-known media personality on Salt Lake City radio stations in the 1970s. He left on-air broadcasting in 1978 to develop and market computer-based management, sales, and music programming systems to radio and television stations in the United States, Canada, South America, and Australia. After the business was sold in 1984, he supported his family as a media and business consultant in the Salt Lake City area. Having a great desire to teach young people of college age, he determined in the late 1980s to pursue his doctorate, and he received his PhD in communication from the University of Utah in 1997. He has taught communication courses at that institution as well as at Salt Lake Community College and Dixie State College of Utah for twenty-one years. He is currently a tenured full-time faculty member at Dixie State College in St. George, Utah. Concurrently with his academic career, Dr. Chase has served as a volunteer LDS Institute and Adult Education instructor in the CES system since 1994, both in Salt Lake City and St. George, where he currently teaches a weekly Adult Education class for three stakes in the Washington area. He has also conducted multiple Church history tours and seminars. During these years of gospel teaching, he has developed an extensive library of lesson plans and handouts that are the predecessors to these study guides.
