What the Bible says about Baruch's Discouragement
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Jeremiah 36:32 This second scroll, then, is even longer than the first. All this transcribing is tedious work, carried out as it is under perhaps less-than-optimum conditions, since Jeremiah and Baruch are in hiding somewhere. It had to be done carefully and accurately. After all, some or all of these words became canonized Scripture, what we now call the book of Jeremiah. These were not man's words, but God's. Baruch has quite a bit of responsibility on his shoulders. The effort may have discouraged Baruch as well as physically fatigued him, resulting in his griping, “The LORD has added misery to my pain” (see Isaiah 45:3) Charles Whitaker Baruch's Complaint (Part Two) Related Topics: Baruch's Complaint | Baruch's Discontent
