Books of Baruch and Jeremiah in the early Church
Baruch & Jeremiah
It’s important to note that in the early Church the Book of Baruch was often cited under the name of Jeremiah. Failure to recognize this has led some into error.
St. Robert Bellarmine, De Verbo Dei, Book 1, Chap. 8: “Finally, the ancients frequently cite this book [Baruch] under the name of Jeremiah, because Baruch was the secretary and a disciple of Jeremiah, as is evident from the Book of Jeremiah (36:4). This is why the ancient councils and fathers did not place Baruch by name in the canon, because they undoubtedly considered this book to be part of the prophecies of Jeremiah.”
