Jeremiah 39:18

life . . . for a prey—(See on Jeremiah 21:9; Jeremiah 38:2; Jeremiah 45:5).

put . . . trust in me— (Jeremiah 38:7-9). Trust in God was the root of his fearlessness of the wrath of men, in his humanity to the prophet (I Chronicles 5:20; Psalms 37:40). The "life" he thus risked was to be his reward, being spared beyond all hope, when the lives of his enemies should be forfeited ("for a prey").



Jeremiah 39:15-18

Belonging to the time when the city was not yet taken, and when Jeremiah was still in the court of the prison (Jeremiah 38:13). This passage is inserted here because it was now that Ebed-melech's good act (Jeremiah 38:7-12; Matthew 25:43) was to be rewarded in his deliverance.
