Jeremiah 41
1. Ishmael, treacherously killing Gedaliah and others,
7. purposes with the residue to flee unto the Ammonites.
11. Johanan rescues the captives, and is minded to flee into Egypt.














When all the people with Ishmael
This phrase refers to the group of people who were with Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah. Ishmael was a member of the royal family and had been appointed by the king of Ammon to assassinate Gedaliah, the governor appointed by the Babylonians. The people with Ishmael were likely a mix of his followers and captives taken during his violent actions. Historically, this reflects the turbulent period following the Babylonian conquest of Judah, where political instability and power struggles were rampant.

saw Johanan son of Kareah
Johanan, the son of Kareah, was a military leader who opposed Ishmael's treachery. His presence signifies hope and potential deliverance for those who were with Ishmael, as Johanan was known for his loyalty to Gedaliah and his desire to protect the remnant of Judah. The historical context here is crucial, as Johanan represents the faction that sought to stabilize the region and protect the people from further harm.

and all the commanders of the army with him
This phrase indicates that Johanan was not alone; he was accompanied by other military leaders. This collective presence of commanders suggests a well-organized effort to confront Ishmael and rescue the captives. In the broader scriptural context, this reflects the theme of God raising leaders to deliver His people in times of distress, reminiscent of the judges and leaders in Israel's history.

they rejoiced
The reaction of rejoicing among the people signifies a moment of relief and hope. In the Hebrew context, rejoicing often accompanies deliverance and the anticipation of peace and restoration. This joy is not just a response to the immediate situation but also a reflection of the deeper longing for stability and divine intervention in the midst of chaos. Theologically, it underscores the belief that God provides leaders and deliverance in times of need, a recurring theme throughout the Bible.

(13) They were glad.--The words are significant as implying the popularity of Gedaliah, and the joy of those who had been under him at seeing the prospect of his murder being avenged. They at once took refuge with the leader of the avenging party.
