The Old Testament of the Christian Bible tells the story of two prophets: one is Jeremiah and the other is Ezekiel.

Jeremiah is called the Weeping Prophet. He lived in Jerusalem and mourned how the kingdom of Judah had moved away from the Sacred Word of God. Instead of obeying the Commandments of the one true god, the people had chosen to worship the idols of false gods, from neighbouring regions, thereby abandoning the way of god as presented by Moses to the 12 tribes of Israel.
