11 Now Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon gave orders about Jeremiah through Nebuzaradan the captain of the bodyguard , saying , 12 "Take him and look e after him, and do nothing e harmful to him, but rather e deal with him just as he tells you." 13 So Nebuzaradan the captain of the bodyguard sent word, along with Nebushazban the Rab-saris , and Nergal-sar-ezer the Rab-mag , and all the leading officers of the king of Babylon ; 14 they even sent and took Jeremiah out of the court of the guardhouse and entrusted him to Gedaliah , the son of Ahikam , the son of Shaphan , to take him home . So he stayed among the people .

Commentary on Jeremiah 39:11-14
(Read Jeremiah 39:11-14)
The servants of God alone are prepared for all events; and they are delivered and comforted, while the wicked suffer. They often meet with more kindness from the profane, than from hypocritical professors of godliness. The Lord will raise them up friends, do them good, and perform all his promises.
