[ Illustration: Today's painting depicts the mistreatment of poor citizens. Ishmael also mistreated the poor and other citizens; and he worsened it by murder. ]

SPECIAL NOTE:

[ I will again be working through the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation. I will be adding links, resources, images, and the like, upgrading the former work-through which began with the 2013-10-12 posting which can be found, along with the full Genesis to Revelation postings, in the Archive Page. Postings will be at midnight Eastern Time, as I am able. However, no chapters will be skipped, even though a posting may be late. And all postings will be housed in the Archive Page. ]

     Explanation: Jeremiah 41 opens with the murder of Governor Gedaliah and his associates by Ishmael and his ten men (1-3).
     Ishmael also slew some who came to him from other cities bearing sacrifices for the Temple, either because they did not know of its destruction, or because they intended to make their offerings on the ruined site, or to offer them at a substitute altar in Mizpah (4-7).
     But Ishmael spared several who gave him a bribe (8).
     Ishmael then took the rest of the inhabitants of Mizpah captive and departed for the Ammonites (9-10).
     Johanan and his men intercepted them and delivered the captives; but Ishmael and eight others escaped to the Ammonites; Johanan then went to Chimham, near Bethlehem, and prepared to flee to Egypt because he was afraid that the Chaldeans would blame him for Ishmael's crime (11-18).

RESOURCES

PLEASE NOTE: Use the resources on this and other sites thoughtfully, particularly the commentaries and encyclopedias. I have attempted to list conservative, scholarly resources. However, some providers use liberal or liberal-influenced commentaries such as the Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges (in Bible Hub). Such commentaries are undoubtedly included by the provider for the wealth of useful information and comments which they provide. By consulting several commentaries, it should be fairly easy to sort out the wheat from the chaff. If, however, you would like personal assistance, write to me at AD LIB ARTS EMAIL.

     ¹ Now it came to pass in the seventh month, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah the son of Elishama, of the seed royal, and the princes of the king, even ten men with him, came unto Gedaliah the son of Ahikam to Mizpah; and there they did eat bread together in Mizpah. ² Then arose Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and the ten men that were with him, and smote [this] Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan with the sword, and slew him, whom the king of Babylon had made governor over the land. ³ Ishmael also slew all the Jews that were with him, even with Gedaliah, at Mizpah, and the Chaldeans that were found there, and the men of war.

     ⁴ And it came to pass the second day after he had slain [this] Gedaliah, and no man knew it, ⁵ That there came certain from Shechem, from Shiloh, and from Samaria, even fourscore men, having their beards shaven, and their clothes rent, and having cut themselves, with offerings and incense in their hand, to bring them to the house of the LORD. ⁶ And Ishmael the son of Nethaniah went forth from Mizpah to meet them, weeping all along as he went [walking to walk]: and it came to pass, as he met them, he said unto them, Come to Gedaliah the son of Ahikam. ⁷ And it was so, when they came into the midst of the city, that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah slew them, and cast them into the midst of the pit, he, and the men that were with him. ⁸ But ten men were found among them that said unto Ishmael, Slay us not: for we have treasures in the field, of wheat, and of barley, and of oil, and of honey. So he forbare, and slew them not among their brethren.

     ⁹ Now the pit wherein Ishmael had cast [this] all the dead >bodies of the men, whom he had slain because of Gedaliah, was it which Asa the king had made for fear of Baasha king of Israel: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah filled it with them that were slain. ¹⁰ Then Ishmael carried away captive [this] all the residue of the people that were in Mizpah, even [this] the king's daughters, and all the people that remained in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had committed to [this] Gedaliah the son of Ahikam: and Ishmael the son of Nethaniah carried them away captive, and departed to go over to the Ammonites.

¹¹ But when Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, heard of [this] all the evil that Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had done, ¹² Then they took [this] all the men, and went to fight with Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, and found him by the great waters that are in Gibeon. ¹³ Now it came to pass, that when all the people which were with Ishmael saw [this] Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, then they were glad. ¹⁴ So all the people that Ishmael had carried away captive from Mizpah cast about and returned, and went unto Johanan the son of Kareah. ¹⁵ But Ishmael the son of Nethaniah escaped from Johanan with eight men, and went to the Ammonites. ¹⁶ Then took Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, [this] all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, from Mizpah, after that he had slain [this] Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, even mighty men of war, and the women, and the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had bought again from Gibeon: ¹⁷ And they departed, and dwelt in the habitation of Chimham, which is by Bethlehem, to go to enter into Egypt, ¹⁸ Because of [from the face of] the Chaldeans: for they were afraid of them [of their face], because Ishmael the son of Nethaniah had slain [this] Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon made governor in the land.
