Jeremias 36:18 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 36:18

Then Baruch answered them
At once, without any hesitation, plainly and fully: he pronounced all these words unto me with his mouth;
that is, the Prophet Jeremiah delivered by word of mouth, not the substance only of this roll, but the express words of it, and everyone of them, and that clearly and distinctly, without any hesitation, or premeditation; by which it is plain it was by the Spirit of the Lord he did it; neither matter nor words were Baruch's, but were exactly as they were delivered: and I wrote [them] with ink in the book;
as they saw with their eyes, and which was the manner of writing with the Jews so early; Baruch had no further concern in this matter than to provide pen, ink, and parchment, and to make use of them as he did, just as the prophet dictated and directed him.

Jeremias 36:18 In-Context

16 Quando ouviram todas aquelas palavras, entreolharam-se com medo e disseram a Baruque: “É absolutamente necessário que relatemos ao rei todas essas palavras”.

17 Perguntaram a Baruque: “Diga-nos, como você escreveu tudo isso? Foi Jeremias quem o ditou a você?”

18 “Sim”, Baruque respondeu, “ele ditou todas essas palavras, e eu as escrevi com tinta no rolo”.

19 Os líderes disseram a Baruque: “Vá esconder-se com Jeremias; e que ninguém saiba onde vocês estão”.

20 Então deixaram o rolo na sala de Elisama, o secretário, foram ao pátio do palácio real e relataram tudo ao rei.
