Jer. 43:4–6 Johanan and company did not obey the voice of the Lord. Rather, they took to Egypt the captives they had rescued (41:11–18). They also took Jeremiah and Baruch (43:6) as hostages.

Jer. 43:7 Tahpanhes. In the eastern delta of Egypt. See 2:16.

Jer. 43:9–10 Jeremiah performs another symbolic act. Compare 13:1–14; 16:1–13; 19:1–15; 27:1–28:17; 32:1–15. This time he places large stones near one of Pharaoh’s palaces and promises that God will place Nebuchadnezzar’s throne on these stones.

Jer. 43:12 as a shepherd cleans his cloak of vermin. Nebuchadnezzar will pick off Egypt’s cities as easily as a shepherd picks lice off his clothing.

Jer. 43:13 obelisks of Heliopolis. Sacred pillars in the temples of Heliopolis, about 5 miles (8 km) northeast of Cairo. Jeremiah highlights the gods’ powerlessness. See 10:1–16.
