Jeremiah 37:1

"Jeremiah."

Key Reflection

In Jeremiah 37:1, the mention of Zedekiah as king highlights a period of significant political turmoil in Judah. This context underscores the theme of Jeremiah's prophecy, which often deals with the consequences of Israel's disobedience and the inevitability of divine judgment and restoration.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

It is evident that Zedekiah was well affected toward Jeremiah. In Jer. 37–38, dealing with events during the siege of Jerusalem, we have an account of his relations with Jeremiah and of the prophet’s personal history up to the capture of the city.
