Contextual Overview
1 Tzidkiyahu the son of Yoshiyahu became king, succeeding Koniyahu the son of Y'hoyakim, whom N'vukhadretzar king of Bavel had made king over the land of Y'hudah. 2 But neither he, his servants nor the people of the land paid attention to the words of Adonai , which he spoke through the prophet Yirmeyahu. 3 Tzidkiyahu the king sent Y'hukhal the son of Shelemyahu and Tz'fanyahu the son of Ma‘aseiyah, the cohen, to the prophet Yirmeyahu with the message, "Please pray to Adonai our God for us." 4 At that time Yirmeyahu was mixing freely with the people, because they had not yet put him in prison. 5 At the same time Pharaoh's army marched out of Egypt; and when the Kasdim besieging Yerushalayim heard about them, they lifted the siege from Yerushalayim. 6 Then this word of Adonai came to the prophet Yirmeyahu: 7 " Adonai the God of Isra'el says to tell the king of Y'hudah, who sent you to me to consult me: ‘Pharaoh's army has marched out to assist you; but they will return to Egypt, to their own country. 8 The Kasdim will return, attack this city, capture it and burn it to the ground.' 9 Here is what Adonai says: ‘Don't deceive yourselves by thinking that the Kasdim must withdraw from you, because they will not withdraw. 10 Even if you were to strike the entire army of the Kasdim fighting against you, to the degree that only their wounded were left, they would still rise up every man from his tent and burn this city to the ground.'"

Jeremiah 36:19; but now he was under no restraint, as least as yet:
for they had not put him into prison; not yet; they afterwards did,
