Jer. 41:1 seventh month. October, most likely 587 b.c., though perhaps as late as 582 (see 52:30). The Feast of Booths took place in this month, and the pilgrims mentioned in 41:4–5 may have come for that festival.
Jer. 41:2 As Johanan had feared (40:13–16), Ishmael (see 40:13–16) did plan to kill Gedaliah. Killing a host was considered a cowardly act. Killing the man Nebuchadnezzar had appointed governor was foolish and dangerous.
Jer. 41:3 Ishmael killed all the Judeans who were with Gedaliah, thus carrying out a political massacre.
Jer. 41:4–5 eighty men. Probably pilgrims for the Feast of Booths.
Jer. 41:10 Ishmael took hostages.
Jer. 41:11–12 Johanan and other former soldiers (40:7–8, 13–16) pursued the treasonous Ishmael. The city of Gibeon was about 3 miles (4.8 km) southwest of Mizpah (see note on 40:6). Ishmael took an indirect route, perhaps to elude capture, but he did not get far.
Jer. 41:13–15 Johanan rescued the hostages and killed two of Ishmael’s men, but Ishmael . . . escaped to Ammon.
