Contextual Overview

1The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh in the tenth year of Zedekiah king of Judah, which was the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar. 2Now at that time the military force of the king of Babylon was besieging Jerusalem, and Jeremiah the prophet was shut up in the court of the guard, which was in the house of the king of Judah, 3because Zedekiah king of Judah had shut him up, saying, "Why do you prophesy, saying, ‘Thus says Yahweh, "Behold, I am about to give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will capture it; 4and Zedekiah king of Judah will not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans, but he will surely be given into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he will speak with him face to face and see him eye to eye; 5and he will lead Zedekiah to Babylon, and he will be there until I visit him," declares Yahweh. "If you fight against the Chaldeans, you will not succeed"'?" 6And Jeremiah said, "The word of Yahweh came to me, saying, 7‘Behold, Hanamel the son of Shallum your uncle is coming to you, saying, "Buy for yourself my field which is at Anathoth, for you have the legal judgment for redemption to buy it."' 8Then Hanamel my uncle's son came to me in the court of the guard according to the word of Yahweh and said to me, ‘Buy my field, please, that is at Anathoth, which is in the land of Benjamin; for you have the legal judgment for possession, and the redemption is yours; buy it for yourself.' Then I knew that this was the word of Yahweh. 9"I bought the field which was at Anathoth from Hanamel my uncle's son, and I weighed out the silver for him, seventeen shekels of silver. 10And I signed and sealed the deed and called in witnesses and weighed out the silver on the scales.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Jeremiah said, the word of the Lord came unto me, saying. Not that he said this to Zedekiah; but the prophet, after the above preface, returns to declare what the word of the Lord was, which came to him at the time before mentioned.
