* Jeremiah.
   The princes seem to have wholly neglected Jeremiah, till on
   this occasion they wanted his sanction to their purpose of
   going to Egypt.  In order to induce him to favour them, they
   applied to him with one consent, in the most respectful and
   plausible manner:  they used language to prepossess him with a
   favourable opinion of them, and to move his compassion; and,
   in words expressing great humility, they entreated his prayers
   in their behalf, and that he would enquire of the Lord what he
   would have them to do.  The prophet readily acquiesced; and
   doubted not but that he should receive an answer from God,
   which he would unreservedly declare to them; and they called
   the Lord to witness that they would implicitly follow his
   directions.
