Footnotes
- 1 Heb “The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord.”
- 2 Zedekiah was the last king of Judah. He ruled from 597 b.c. when he was placed on the throne by Nebuchadnezzar (2 Kgs 24:17) until the fall of Jerusalem in 587/6 b.c. He acquiesced to some of his anti-Babylonian counselors, rebelled against Nebuchadnezzar, and sought help from the Egyptians (Ezek 17:12–15). This brought Nebuchadnezzar against the city in 588 b.c. This is the first of two delegations to Jeremiah. The later one was sent after Nebuchadnezzar withdrew to take care of the Egyptian threat (cf. Jer 37:1–9).
- 3 The Pashhur son of Malkijah referred to here is not the same as the Pashhur referred to in 20:1–6 who was the son of Immer. This Pashhur is referred to later in 38:1. The Zephaniah referred to here was the chief of security referred to later in Jer 29:25–26. He appears to have been favorably disposed toward Jeremiah.
- 4 Heb “sent to him … Maaseiah, saying,.…”
