Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi
on Jeremiah 36:14-16
The officials send Jehudi to bring Baruch and the scroll. When they had heard it, “they turned to one another in fear.” Their decision, “Surely we must report all these words to the king,” sends the scroll up to the one man who can act on it.
