Jeremías 32:11 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 32:11

the counter part or copy of the former, which though signed and sealed as the other, yet not sealed up, but was open and exposed to view; either for the relations to see what was done, as some; or for the judges, as others, to ratify and make authentic: or, as is most probable, this copy was laid up in some public register, to have recourse unto upon any occasion; however it was, it was according to the laws and customs of those times, which Jeremiah carefully attended to: or, as others, it lay open for the witnesses to sign; so there are three distinct things; first the written contract; then that as signed and sealed by buyer and seller, according to law; and then as signed, but not sealed, by the witnesses.

12 y se las di a Baruc, hijo de Nerías y nieto de Maaseías. Hice todo esto en presencia de mi primo Hanameel, de los testigos que firmaron la escritura y de todos los hombres de Judá que estaban allí en el patio de la guardia.

13 Entonces le dije a Baruc mientras todos escuchaban:
