Jeremiah 38:26
_ _ presented — literally, “made my supplication to fall”; implying supplication with humble prostration (see on Jeremiah 36:7).
_ _ Jonathan’s house — (Jeremiah 37:15), different from Malchiah’s dungeon (Jeremiah 38:6). This statement was true, though not the whole truth; the princes had no right to the information; no sanction is given by Scripture here to Jeremiah’s representation of this being the cause of his having come to the king. Fear drove him to it. Compare Genesis 20:2, Genesis 20:12; on the other hand, 1 Samuel 16:2, 1 Samuel 16:5.
_ _ left off speaking with — Hebrew, “were silent from him,” that is, withdrawing from him they left him quiet (1 Samuel 7:8, Margin). |
Jeremiah 38:26
Then thou shalt say to them, I (l) presented my supplication before the king, that he would not cause me to return to Jonathan's house, to die there.
(l) In this appears the infirmity of the prophet, who dissembled to save his life even though it was not to the denial of his doctrine or to the hurt of any. |
Jeremiah 37:15 Wherefore the princes were wroth with Jeremiah, and smote him, and put him in prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe: for they had made that the prison.
Jeremiah 37:20 Therefore hear now, I pray thee, O my lord the king: let my supplication, I pray thee, be accepted before thee; that thou cause me not to return to the house of Jonathan the scribe, lest I die there.
Jeremiah 42:2 And said unto Jeremiah the prophet, Let, we beseech thee, our supplication be accepted before thee, and pray for us unto the LORD thy God, [ even] for all this remnant; (for we are left [ but] a few of many, as thine eyes do behold us:)
Esther 4:8 Also he gave him the copy of the writing of the decree that was given at Shushan to destroy them, to shew [ it] unto Esther, and to declare [ it] unto her, and to charge her that she should go in unto the king, to make supplication unto him, and to make request before him for her people.
