Jeremiah: Release from the pit (part 4 of 5)
Psalm 25:15 NIV ~ My eyes are ever on the Lord,
for only he will release my feet from the snare
10 Then the king commanded Ebed-Melek the Cushite, “Take thirty
men from here with you and lift Jeremiah the prophet out of the cistern before
he dies.” 11 So
Ebed-Melek took the men with him and went to a room under the treasury in the
palace. He took some old rags and worn-out clothes from there and let them down
with ropes to Jeremiah in the cistern. 12 Ebed-Melek the Cushite said to Jeremiah, “Put these
old rags and worn-out clothes under your arms to pad the ropes.” Jeremiah did
so, 13 and
they pulled him up with the ropes and lifted him out of the cistern. And
Jeremiah remained in the courtyard of the guard. (Jeremiah 38:10-13)
