Contextual Overview
1 This is the word that came to Yirmeyahu from Adonai in the tenth year of Tzidkiyahu king of Y'hudah, which was the eighteenth year of N'vukhadretzar. 2 At that time the army of the king of Bavel was besieging Yerushalayim; and Yirmeyahu the prophet was imprisoned in the guards' quarters attached to the king of Y'hudah's palace, 3 where Tzidkiyahu king of Y'hudah had imprisoned him after demanding, "How dare you prophesy that Adonai says, ‘I will hand this city over to the king of Bavel, and he will capture it; 4 Tzidkiyahu king of Y'hudah will not escape from the Kasdim but will certainly be handed over to the king of Bavel, who will address him face to face, with their eyes meeting; 5 and he will lead Tzidkiyahu to Bavel, where he will stay until I remember him,' says Adonai , ‘and even if you fight the Kasdim, you will fail'?" 6 Yirmeyahu said, "This word of Adonai came to me: 7 ‘Hanam'el, the son of your uncle Shalum, will approach you and say, "Buy my field at ‘Anatot; you have next-of-kin's right to redeem it; so buy it."'" 8 As Adonai had said, my cousin Hanam'el came to me in the guards' quarters and said, "Please buy my field at ‘Anatot, in the territory of Binyamin; because you will inherit it, and you have next-of-kin's right to redeem it, so buy it for yourself." Then I was certain that this was Adonai 's word. 9 So I bought the field at ‘Anatot which belonged to my cousin Hanam'el and weighed out the money for him, seven ounces of silver shekels. 10 I signed on the purchase contract, sealed it, called witnesses and weighed out the money for him on a balance scale.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Zedekiah king of Judah shall not escape out of the hand of the Chaldeans,.... This is a continuation of the prophecy of Jeremiah, repeated by the king to him, and which concerns himself more especially; who, upon the taking of the city, would endeavour to make his escape, as he did; but should not be able, Jeremiah 52:8;
but shall surely be delivered into the hand of the king of Babylon; not only into the hands of his army, and of his generals, but into his own hand personally; since it follows:
and shall speak with him mouth to mouth, and his eyes shall behold his eyes; converse together face to face, eye to eye; but no doubt with different tones and looks; the king of Babylon upbraiding the king of Judah with perjury and ingratitude, and looking upon him with indignation and contempt; the other speaking faintly, and looking down with grief, shame, and confusion; moreover, the eyes of the king of Babylon beheld the eyes of Zedekiah, and ordered them to be put out, as they were, 2 Kings 25:7.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 32:4. And shall speak with him mouth to mouth — He shall be reduced to a state of the most abject servitude. The slave was obliged to fix his eyes on every motion of the master whilst giving his orders, who often condescended to give them only by dumb signs.
