JEREMIAH. The Jewish prophet. He lived and prophesied at the same time as Lehi, and appears to have been personally acquainted with him. Many of his prophecies were recorded on the plates of brass obtained by Nephi from Laban. (I Nephi, 5:13.) His prophecies regarding the destruction of Jerusalem and the advent of the Messiah are referred to by Nephi, the son of Helaman. (Helaman, 8:20.)
