Then spake Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the proud men, saying unto Jeremiah, Thou speakest falsely: the LORD our God hath not sent thee to say, Go not into Egypt to sojourn there:
Azariah - the author of the project of going into Egypt. A very different man from the Azariah in Babylon (Daniel 1:7; Daniel 3:12-18). All the proud men - pride is the parent of disobedience and contempt of God.
