- v 13. Repent of your sin, and God will not send judgment.
- v 14-15. I am in your hands; but remember Who sent me.
- v 16. The princes and the people declared the Jeremiah was NOT worthy of death.
- v 18-23. Different administrations handle disgruntled voices in different manners. Some dissidents get shipped off to the Gulag, some to the dungeon, some to the firing squad.
