“Question & Answer”

Question:
How did Jeremiah work with his secretary?
Answer:
Baruch ben Neriah (Hebrew: בָּרוּךְ בֶּן־נֵרִיָּה Bārūḵ ben Nērīyyā; c. 6th century BC) was the scribe, disciple, secretary, and devoted friend of the Biblical prophet Jeremiah. He is traditionally credited with authoring the Book of Baruch. Baruch wrote upon a scroll at the dedication of Jeremiah all the words of the Lord which he had spoken to him. Isaiah 36:4 KJV: And Rabshakeh said unto them, Say ye now to Hezekiah, Thus saith the great king, the king of Assyria, What confidence is this wherein thou trustest? Isaiah 45:1 KJV:Thus saith the Lord to his anointed, to Cyrus, whose right hand I have holden, to subdue nations before him; and I will loose the loins of kings, to open before him the two leaved gates; and the gates shall not be shut; Jeremiah said: “I am debarred from going to the house of the Lord; so you are to go and in the hearing of all the people you shall read the words of the Lord from the scroll which you have written at my dictations. Isaiah 36:6 KJV> Lo, thou trustest in the staff of this broken reed, on Egypt; whereon if a man lean, it will go into his hand, and pierce it: so is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all that trust in him.
