Context of Jeremiah 36:19

17And they asked Baruch, “Tell us now, how did you write all these words? At his (Jeremiah’s) dictation?” 18Then Baruch answered them, “He dictated all these words to me, and I wrote them with ink on the scroll.” Then the princes said to Baruch, “Go and hide, you and Jeremiah, and do not let anyone know where you are.” 20Then they went into the court to the king, but they [first] put the scroll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe; then they reported all the words to the king. 21So the king sent Jehudi to get the scroll, and he took it out of the chamber of Elishama the scribe. And Jehudi read it to the king and all the princes who stood beside the king.
