Jeremiah 36:8 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 36:8

And Baruch the son of Neriah did according to all that Jeremiah
the prophet commanded him
Here follows Baruch's obedience to the prophet's commands; which he considered no doubt as the will of the Lord, who directed the prophet to give the orders he did; and which he punctually observed, in all respects, as to things, time, and place: reading in the book the words of the Lord in the Lord's house;
the prophecies of Jeremiah, which came from the Lord, and which he had transcribed into a book from the mouth of the prophet; these he read before the people in the temple, a first, if not a second time, before the reading of it recorded in the following verses.
