Jeremiah 32:12
32:12 I took both copies of the deed of purchase
and gave them to Baruch son of Neriah, the son of Mahseiah. I gave them to him in the presence
of my cousin
Hanamel, the witnesses who had signed the deed of purchase, and all the Judeans who were housed in the courtyard of the guardhouse.

Yet, in spite of this,

God,
have said to me, “Buy that field with silver and have the transaction legally witnessed.”’”
Jeremiah 32:44
32:44 Fields will again be bought with silver, and deeds of purchase signed, sealed, and witnessed. This will happen in the territory of Benjamin, the villages surrounding Jerusalem, the towns in Judah, the southern hill country, the western foothills, and southern Judah.
For I will restore them to their land.
I, the
Lord, affirm it!’”

4:10 I have also acquired Ruth the Moabite, the wife of Mahlon, as my wife to raise up a descendant who will inherit his property
so the name of the deceased might not disappear
from among his relatives and from his village.
You are witnesses today.”
4:11 All the people who were at the gate and the elders replied, “We are witnesses. May the
Lord make the woman who is entering your home like Rachel and Leah, both of whom built up the house of Israel! May
you prosper
in Ephrathah and become famous
in Bethlehem.
