Johanan, discrediting Jeremiah's prophecy, carries him and the rest in Egypt.8. Jeremiah prophesies by a type the conquest of Egypt by the Babylonians. then Azariah son of Hoshaiah Azariah, whose name means "Yahweh has helped," is a significant figure in this narrative. The mention of his lineage, "son of Hoshaiah," roots him in a historical context, emphasizing the importance of family and heritage in ancient Israel. This highlights the cultural and societal structures of the time, where lineage often determined one's role and influence. Azariah's actions, however, contrast with the meaning of his name, as he opposes the divine message delivered by Jeremiah. Johanan son of Kareah and all the arrogant men said to Jeremiah 'You are lying! The LORD our God has not sent you to say, ‘You must not go to Egypt to reside there.’ (2) Azariah the son of Hoshaiah.--The LXX., it will be remembered, gives this name in Jeremiah 42:1, where the Hebrew has Jezaniah. Possibly, however, as suggested above, the two names represent brothers who were both prominent as leaders of the people. Here, we may note, he takes precedence of Johanan, probably as the chief spokesman of the prevailing discontent. The special mention of "all the proud men" suggests the thought that there were some who, left to themselves, would have been willing to follow the prophet's counsel. Those who join in the protest content themselves with a flat denial of his inspiration, and charge him, as he had been charged before (Jeremiah 37:13), with sinister intentions. It is suggestive, in connexion with the view taken in the Note on Jeremiah 42:17, that the LXX., following apparently a different reading of the Hebrew, gives "all the aliens" instead of "all the proud." Verse 2. - All the proud men. It would seem as if the "proud men" were distinguished from others. Jeremiah had called the whole people together (Jeremiah 42:8); but a few domineering men assumed to represent the rest.Parallel Commentaries ...
