Contextual Overview
1 Zedekiah the son of Josiah, whom Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon had made king in the land of Judah, ruled in place of Coniah the son of Jehoiakim. 2 But he and his servants and the people of the land would not listen to what the Lord said through Jeremiah the man of God. 3 King Zedekiah sent Jehucal the son of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the religious leader, to Jeremiah the man of God, saying, "Pray to the Lord our God for us." 4 Now Jeremiah was still free to come and go among the people, for they had not yet put him in prison. 5 The army of Pharaoh had come out of Egypt. And when the Babylonian army which had been around Jerusalem heard the news about them, they left Jerusalem. 6 Then the Word of the Lord came to Jeremiah the man of God, saying, 7 "This is what the Lord God of Israel says: ‘Tell the king of Judah, who sent you to ask Me what will happen, "See, Pharaoh's army which has come to help you is going to return to its own land of Egypt. 8 Then the Babylonians will return and fight against this city. They will take it and burn it with fire."' 9 The Lord says, ‘Do not fool yourselves, saying, "For sure the Babylonians will go away from us." For they will not go. 10 Even if you had won the battle against the whole Babylonian army fighting with you, and only men who were hurt were left in their tents, they would rise up and burn this city with fire.'"
