Jeremiah Arrested as a Deserter
Jeremiah 37:11-16
11
When the Chaldean army withdrew from Jerusalem for fear of Pharaoh’s army,
12
Jeremiah started to leave Jerusalem to go to the land of Benjamin to claim his portion there among the people.
13
But when he reached the Gate of Benjamin, the captain of the guard, whose name was Irijah son of Shelemiah, the son of Hananiah, seized him and said, “You are deserting to the Chaldeans!”
14
“That is a lie,” Jeremiah replied. “I am not deserting to the Chaldeans!” But Irijah would not listen to him; instead, he arrested Jeremiah and took him to the officials.
15
The officials were angry with Jeremiah, and they beat him and placed him in jail in the house of Jonathan the scribe, for it had been made into a prison.
16
So Jeremiah went into a cell in the dungeon and remained there a long time.
