PASHUR

<< jr chap 7 p.82 par 5 [Pashur] >>

PASHHUR: A priest*, [...] the leading commissioner in the house of Jehovah.” Pashhur, objecting to Jeremiah’s prophecies, struck him and put him into the stocks and released him the following day. As a result Jehovah, through Jeremiah, foretold exile and death in Babylon for Pashhur and, accordingly, changed his name from Pashhur to “Fright all around” (Heb., Ma·ghohr′ mis·sa·viv′) (Jer 20:1-6), an expression occurring several times in the book of Jeremiah.—Jer 6:25; 20:3, 10; 46:5; 49:29. " - it-2 pp. 580-581

*Not to be confused with the Prince Pashur

[*] Pashhur “struck” Jeremiah, perhaps having him beaten with 39 strokes. (Jer. 20:2; Deut. 25:3)

Right after the flask-breaking incident Jeremiah suffered the greatest indignities. Not only was his message as delivered in the name of Jehovah ignored, but, symbolic of the greatest disrespect, he was struck by the temple commissioner! This striking may have been a beating with rods, administered at the temple commissioner’s orders. With such a high official taking the lead, the people no doubt felt free to heap jeers, ridicule and abuse on him to their satisfaction. They too may have struck him and spit on him, egged on by the prophets and priests who hated Jeremiah. Then, as if he, Jehovah’s representative, were a criminal, he was put into the stocks. (Jer. 20:1-3) These were probably inside a room or cell at the gate.—Compare 2 Chronicles 16:10; Acts 16:24. w69

Pashhur the priest (not the Prince Pashur): Jeremiah Chapter 20; jr p. 10 [Psalms 35 and Psalms 54]



"Bear with me while I speak; After I speak, you may then mock me" - Job 21:3

On another occasion, after the priest Pashhur the son of Immer struck him, Jeremiah said that he would not speak in Jehovah’s name anymore. In what way did God respond to Jeremiah’s prayerful expression? (Read Jeremiah 20:8, 9.) The Bible does not tell us that God responded by speaking to Jeremiah from heaven. But God’s word became like a burning fire shut up in his bones, and he could not help but declare it. Indeed, by honestly expressing himself before God and allowing himself to be moved by what he knew of His will, Jeremiah was motivated to follow through on what God wanted him to do. jr chap 10 p. 117 par 9
