Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, Take in thine hand the roll wherein thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriah took the roll in his hand, and came unto them.
Jehudi - of a good family, as appears from his pedigree being given so fully, but in a subordinate position.
All the princes sent ... unto Baruch, saying ... come - instead of requiring Baruch to come to them, they ought to have gone to the temple, and there professed their penitence. But pride forbade it (Calvin).
