Jeremiah 32:12
Compare all
10 And I signed the deed and sealed it, took witnesses, and weighed the money on the scales.  
11 So I took the purchase deed, both that which was sealed according to the law and custom, and that which was open;
12 and I gave the purchase deed to aBaruch the son of Neriah, son of Mahseiah, in the presence of Hanamel my uncle’s son, and in the presence of the bwitnesses who signed the purchase deed, before all the Jews who sat in the court of the prison.  
13 “Then I charged aBaruch before them, saying,  
14 ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: “Take these deeds, both this purchase deed which is sealed and this deed which is open, and put them in an earthen vessel, that they may last many days.”
15 For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: “Houses and fields and vineyards shall be apossessed again in this land.” ’  

Jeremiah Prays for Understanding

16 “Now when I had delivered the purchase deed to Baruch the son of Neriah, I prayed to the Lord, saying:
17 ‘Ah, Lord God! Behold, aYou have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. bThere is nothing too hard for You.  
18 You show alovingkindness to thousands, and repay the iniquity of the fathers into the bosom of their children after them—the Great, bthe Mighty God, whose name is cthe Lord of hosts.

Jeremiah 32:12

Baruch—Jeremiah's amanuensis and agent (Jeremiah 36:4, etc.).

before all—In sales everything clandestine was avoided; publicity was required. So here, in the court of prison, where Jeremiah was confined, there were soldiers and others, who had free access to him, present (Jeremiah 38:1).
