- Now Pashhur the son of Immer, the
priest who was also
chief governor in the house of the Lord, heard that Jeremiah prophesied
these
things. (Ezra 2:37&38; 1 Chr. 24:1)
- Then Pashhur struck Jeremiah the
prophet, and put
him in the stocks that were in the high gate of Benjamin, which was by
the
house of the Lord. (Jer. 37:13; John 18:22)
- And it happened on the next day
that Pashhur brought Jeremiah out of the stocks. Then Jeremiah
said to him, "The Lord has not called your name Pashhur, but
Magor-Missabib.

"Fear on every side!" "Report," they say, "and we will report
it!" All my acquaintances watched for my stumbling, saying,

(Ps. 31:12; Ps. 41:9;
Ps. 55:13-14) and we will take out revenge
on him."

the womb, that my mother might have been my grave, and her womb always
enlarged with me. (Job 3:10&11)
- Why did I come forth from the womb
to see labour and sorrow, (Job 3:20;
Lam. 3:1) that my days should be consumed with shame?
