Footnotes
- 56 Heb “All the officials came to Jeremiah and questioned him.”
- 57 Heb “And he reported to them according to all these words which the king had commanded.”
- 58 Heb “And they were silent from him because the word/matter [i.e., the conversation between Jeremiah and the king] had not been heard.” According to 578 מִן 1.a the preposition “from” is significant in this construction, implying a verb of motion. I.e., “they were [fell] silent [and turned away] from him.”
