Jeremiah 13:3 In-Context

1 God told me, "Go and buy yourself some linen shorts. Put them on and keep them on. Don't even take them off to wash them."

2 So I bought the shorts as God directed and put them on.

3 Then God told me,

4 "Take the shorts that you bought and go straight to Perath and hide them there in a crack in the rock."

5 So I did what God told me and hid them at Perath.
