Introduction
The book of Baruk is set among the people taken into exile in Bavel (Babylon) after Yerushalem (Jerusalem) was captured. It opens with Baruk reading to the exiles, who weep, pray, and send money and a message to the people still in Yerushalem. The prayer that follows openly acknowledges their disobedience and asks God to show mercy and bring his people home.
The book then calls Yisrael (Israel) to seek wisdom in God’s instructions. Yerushalem is pictured as a grieving mother whose children have been taken away, but who can look forward to their return. These sections move from confession and sorrow to renewed hope in God’s faithfulness.
The final chapter contains The Letter of Yirmiyah (Jeremiah), addressed to people facing exile. It warns them not to be impressed or frightened by the idols they will see in Bavel. Again and again, it points out that these objects can’t speak, protect themselves, or help their worshippers.
The book of Baruk is recognised as deuterocanonical scripture by the Roman Catholic, Greek Orthodox, and Russian Orthodox Churches. In some Bibles, Baruk chapter 6 is listed as a separate book called The Letter of Yirmiyah/Jeremiah, reflecting its separation from Baruk in some copies of the Greek Septuagint.
