Charles Spurgeon Commentary Jeremiah 32:11-12

"So I took the deed of the purchase, both that which was sealed, [according to] the law and custom, and that which was open: and I delivered the deed of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah, in the presence of Hanamel mine uncle`s [son], and in the presence of the witnesses that subscribed the deed of the purchase, before all the Jews that sat in the court of the guard." — Jeremiah 32:11-12 (ASV)

So I took the evidence of the purchase, both that which was sealed according to the law and custom, and that which was open: and I gave the evidence of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriah, the son of Maaseiah, in the sight of Hanameel mine uncle's son, and in the presence of the witnesses that subscribed the book of the purchase, before all the Jews that sat in the court of the prison.

Jeremiah did all this openly. What they may have thought to be an absurd action, he did not do in private; but in the presence of them all.

True faith in God does not engage in clandestine dealings. Faith can do its business in the light of the sun. Faith believes God under all circumstances and believes that the truest common sense is to obey His Word.

Therefore, she is not ashamed of what she does; nor will she ever have cause to be ashamed or dismayed, forever. There is a living God; and if we do what He commands us, good must come of it. No harm will happen to the man who confidently rests in the Most High.
