Jeremiah 36:1-19
In fourth year of Jehoiakim, the Lord asked Jeremiah toke a scroll and write on it all words that God have spoken to him against Israel and Judah and all nations.
It may be that the house of Judah will hear all the disaster that I intend to do them, so that every one may turn from his evil way, and that I my forgive their iniquity and their sin. Baruch dictated all thee words from Jeremiah, God told him.
In the fifth year of Johoiakim, in the ninth month, all the people in Jerusalem and all the people who came from the cities of Judah to Jerusalem proclaimed a fat before the Lord. Baruch read the words of Jeremiah from the scroll, in the house of the Lord.
Micaiah the son of Gemariah, heard all the words of the Lord from the scroll, he went to told all the officials in king's house.Those official heard the words from Baruch read before them, they were feared. They asked Baruch and Jeremiah go and hide, and let no one know where they are.
Why?
The Lord hopes not only Jeremiah knew what the Lord says, but also all people of Judah and Israel read it. So asked Jeremiah wrote it down on a scroll. Writing on scroll was slow in ancient.
Some of the officials are feared when they heard the words of the Lord from reading of Baruch.
The Lord has full of mercy, he gave many chance to his people to turn away from their evil way. Then his wrath may suspended.
How?
Bible is our scroll of the words of the Lord in this generation, it is more popular and easy to read to every one. What people need is the heart turn to the Lord. Blessing is the man who fear the Lord.
