Jeremiah 36:25

Presbyterian
SCRIPTURE

"Moreover Elnathan and Delaiah and Gemariah had made intercession to the king that he would not burn the roll; but he would not hear them." — Jeremiah 36:25 (ASV)

It is remarkable to find Elnathan interceding for Jeremiah after the office he had discharged toward Urijah (Jeremiah 26:22).
