Context of Jeremiah 36:19

17Then they asked Baruch, “Tell us, how did you write all these words? At his dictation?” 18Baruch said to them, “At his dictation. He recited all these words to me while I was writing on the scroll in ink.” The officials said to Baruch, “You and Jeremiah must hide and tell no one where you are.” 20Then, after depositing the scroll in the chamber of Elishama the scribe, the officials came to the king at the courtyard and reported everything in the hearing of the king. 21The king sent Jehudi to get the scroll, and he took it from the chamber of Elishama the scribe. Jehudi then read it in the hearing of the king and all the officials who were standing by the king.
