ZEDEKIAH CONSULTS JEREMIAH WHAT IS TO BE THE EVENT OF THE WAR: GOD'S ANSWER. (Jeremiah 21:1-14)
Zedekiah—a prince having some reverence for sacred things, for which reason he sends an honorable embassy to Jeremiah; but not having moral courage to obey his better impulses.
Pashur—son of Melchiah, of the fifth order of priests, distinct from Pashur, son of Immer (Jeremiah 20:1), of the sixteenth order (I Chronicles 24:9, I Chronicles 24:14).
Zephaniah—of the twenty-fourth order. They are designated, not by their father, but by their family (I Chronicles 24:18).
