NET Notes

¹tn Heb “All the officials came to Jeremiah and questioned him.”

²tn Heb “And he reported to them according to all these words which the king had commanded.”

³tn Heb “And they were silent from him because the word/matter [i.e., the conversation between Jeremiah and the king] had not been heard.” According to BDB 578 s.v. מִן 1.a the preposition “from” is significant in this construction, implying a verb of motion. I.e., “they were [fell] silent [and turned away] from him.”
