Contextual Overview

7 And it happened at the end of ten days, the Word of Jehovah was to Jeremiah. 8 And he called Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the army heads with him, and all the people, from the least even to the greatest. 9 And he said to them, So says Jehovah, the God of Israel, to whom you sent me to present your petition before Him. 10 If you will still remain in this land, then I will build you up, and will not tear you down. And I will plant you, and will not pluck you up. For I repent as to the evil that I have done to you. 11 Do not be afraid of the king of Babylon, of whom you are afraid. Do not be afraid of his face, declares Jehovah, for I am with you to save you and to deliver you from his hand. 12 And I will show mercies to you, so that he may have pity on you, and cause you to return to your own land. 13 But if you say, We will not live in this land or obey the voice of Jehovah your God, 14 saying, No, but we will go into the land of Egypt, where we shall see no war or hear the sound of the ram's horn, and we will not hunger for bread, and there we will live; 15 then hear now the Word of Jehovah, O remnant of Judah, So says Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel: If you surely set your faces to go into Egypt, and go to live there, 16 then it shall be, the sword which you feared shall overtake you there in the land of Egypt. And the famine which you were anxious about shall cling to you there in Egypt, and you shall die there.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then called he Johanan the son of Kareah,.... That is, Jeremiah, as soon as he had received the answer from the Lord, called to Johanan; who, after the death of Gedaliah, was a person of the greatest authority, and had the command of the people, to come unto him, and hear what it was: he either called to him vocally and by name; or he sent a proper messenger to him, to meet him at some convenient place, to receive it; and not him only, but

all the captains of the forces which [were] with him, and all the people, from the least even unto the greatest; they were all convened together, as it was proper they should, to hear the word of the Lord; and the rather, since they all joined in a request to the prophet,

Jeremiah 42:1.
