Jeremiah 43:3 . Baruch setteth thee on against us, in our purpose to seek an asylum in Egypt.

Daniel Whedon

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Jeremiah 43:7

7. Tahpanhes See Jeremiah 2:16. This was a frontier town on the Pelusian branch of the Nile. It is the Daphne of Herodotus. It is repeatedly mentioned by Jeremiah and Ezekiel, and seems to have been a place of considerable importance, as in the passage above referred to “Noph and Tahpanhes” are made to represent Egypt, and in Jeremiah 43:9 we learn that Pharaoh had a palace there. read more
