24:1 The Lord showed me two baskets of figs sitting before his temple. This happened after King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon deported Jehoiakim’s son, King Jeconiah of Judah. He deported him and the leaders of Judah, along with the craftsmen and metal workers, and took them to Babylon. 3
29:1 The prophet Jeremiah sent a letter to the exiles Nebuchadnezzar had carried off from Jerusalem 4 to Babylon. It was addressed to the elders who were left among the exiles, to the priests, to the prophets, and to all the other people who were exiled in Babylon. 5 29:2 He sent it after King Jeconiah, the queen mother, the palace officials, 6 the leaders of Judah and Jerusalem, the craftsmen, and the metal workers had been exiled from Jerusalem. 7
38:17 Then Jeremiah said to Zedekiah, “The Lord, the God who rules over all, the God of Israel, 8 says, ‘You must surrender to the officers of the king of Babylon. If you do, your life will be spared 9 and this city will not be burned down. Indeed, you and your whole family will be spared. 38:18 But if you do not surrender to the officers of the king of Babylon, this city will be handed over to the Babylonians 10 and they will burn it down. You yourself will not escape from them.’” 11
