This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Jer 26:1-24. Jeremiah declared worthy of death, but by the interposition of Ahikam saved; The similar cases of Micah and Urijah being adduced in the prophet’s favor.
The prophecies which gave the offense were those given in detail in the seventh, eighth, and ninth chapters (compare Jer 26:6 here with Jer 7:12, Jer 7:14); and summarily referred to here [Maurer], probably pronounced at one of the great feasts (that of tabernacles, according to Ussher; for the inhabitants of “all the cities of Judah” are represented as present, Jer 26:2). See on Jer 7:2.
