26:20–23 The story of Uriah shows that Jeremiah was not alone in his preaching; it also stresses that Jeremiah’s escape is not the most important point of this chapter, but rather the opposition in Judah to the word of God. Uriah died; Jeremiah lived, to complete his God-ordained ministry. Compare the various fates of the heroes of faith in Heb. 11:32–38.
