The dates of the events in the book of Jeremiah is from the Judean king Josiah's 13th year (or 627BC) in Jeremiah 1:2 to beyond the fall of Jerusalem ( or 586BC) in Jeremiah 39, 40, and 52. As Jewish tradition is that Jeremiah was taken captive by the Babylonians when they invaded Egypt (he went to Egypt - see Jer 43, 44) in 568/67 BC, it could not have been actually written much later than that.
The prophet Jeremiah wrote the book of Lamentations.
AnswerThe Book of Lamentations is generally attributed to the prophet Jeremiah, having the same style and being written around the same time as the Book of Jeremiah. However, scholars believe this attribution is somewhat unlikely, as the viewpoint expressed in Lamentations is most unlike his pronouncements in Jeremiah. Similar style and language are common to several of Jeremiah's contemporaries.The Book of Jeremiah mentions a scroll that Jeremiah wrote and had hidden in the Temple to be found there, so as to deceive King Jehoiakim. This scroll would not have been the Book of Jeremiah, but the event must have taken place some time before 598 BCE, giving us a perspective on the earliest material in the book. The Book of Jeremiah continues on into the period of the Babylonian Exile, when it must have been completed. We can not say when Jeremiah actually began to write down his memoirs, but we can say the book was completed early in the sixth century BCE.

Only what is quoted from them in the Book of Kings, which was written by Jeremiah. In Judaism, there is a text from the Talmudic era called Tanna Dvei Eliyahu which contains teachings from Elijah that were recorded by one of the Jewish sages.
Jeremiah was called to be a prophet before he was born. In Jeremiah 1:6 it is written, "Ah, Soverign Lord," I said. "I do not know how to speak; I am only a child." This tells us that he was young when he began being a prophet. His father was Hilkiah who was a priest. Jeremiah probably had no occupation due to his young age and helping his father with his priestly duties. The Bible makes no mention of an occupation.
