So the Alexandrian copy of the LXX hasεν μελανι, and Vulgate atramento "with ink." Perhaps the princes supposed that Baruch had written this roll from memory; and that it was rather to be considered as his composition, than the substance of Jeremiah's prophecies; and they might ask this apparently frivolous question in order to allay the alarms excited by considering it as the word of God. But Baruch, with great simplicity, so answered their question, as to shew that he only acted as Jeremiah's amanuensis, and wrote verbatim what he had dictated.ReciprocalJeremiah 36:32 - who Verse 19Jeremiah 36:26, 26:20-24; 1 Kings 17:3, 18:4, 18:10; 2 Chronicles 25:15; Proverbs 28:12; Amos 7:12; Luke 13:31; Acts 5:40, 23:16-22ReciprocalJeremiah 26:16 - General; Zechariah 7:14 - scattered Verse 20Jeremiah 36:12, 36:21Reciprocal2 Kings 9:37 - the carcase; 2 Chronicles 34:16 - Shaphan; 34:18 - And Shaphan read; Ezra 6:1 - rolls; Jeremiah 41:1 - Elishama; Zechariah 5:1 - roll Verse 21JehudiJeremiah 36:14 And Jehudi36:15, 23:28, 26:2; 2 Kings 22:10; 2 Chronicles 34:18; Ezekiel 2:4, 2:5Reciprocal2 Chronicles 34:16 - Shaphan; Jeremiah 22:21 - I spake; 34:14 - but; 36:4 - upon; 36:12 - Elishama; 36:20 - General; 52:2 - according; Habakkuk 3:2 - I have Verse 22A warm apartment suited to the season of the year - December, when snow is often upon the ground in Palestine

Chardin observes, "In the Lower Asia, in particular, the day is always hot; and as soon as the sun is fifteen degrees above the horizon, no cold is felt in the depth of winter itself. On the contrary, in the height of summer the nights are as cold as at Paris in the month of March. It is for this reason that in Persia and Turkey they always make use of furred habits in the country, such only being sufficient to resist the cold of the nights. I have travelled in Arabia, and in Mesopotamia - the theatre of the adventures of Jacob
both in winter and in summer, and have found the truth of what the Patriarch said, "That he was scorched with the heat in the day, and stiffened with cold in the night" - 31:40. This contrariety in the qualities of the air in twenty-four hours is extremely great in some places, and not conceivable by those that have not felt it; one would imagine that he had passed in a moment from the violent heats of summer to the depth of winter. Thus it had pleased God to temper the heat of the sun by the coldness of night, without which the greatest part of the East would be barren, and a desert.Reciprocal2 Kings 9:35 - but they found; 24:6 - slept; Ecclesiastes 6:3 - and also; Jeremiah 8:2 - they shall be; 16:4 - neither; 22:2 - that sittest; 22:19 - General; 26:23 - and cast; Ezekiel 19:9 - and brought
