Jeremiah 36:4 - Exposition

Baruch . Already mentioned as Jeremiah's attendant, in Jeremiah 32:12 . He appears to have been of high rank (see on Jeremiah 32:15 ), as Josephus, indeed, expressly states ('Ant.,' 10.9, 1). Maaseiah, his grandfather, was governor of the city ( 2 Chronicles 34:8 ), and Seraiah his brother ( Jeremiah 51:59 ) held some equally honourable, though not so easily definable, position in the court.
