The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: Ammonites, and in Edom, and that were in all the countries, heard that
the king of Babylon had left a remnant of Judah, and that he had set
over them Gedaliah the son of Ahikam the son of Shaphan;
JER 40:12 Even all the Jews returned out of all places whither they
were driven, and came to the land of Judah, to Gedaliah, unto Mizpah,
and gathered wine and summer fruits very much.
JER 40:13 Moreover Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of
the forces that were in the fields, came to Gedaliah to Mizpah,
JER 40:14 And said unto him, Dost thou certainly know that Baalis the
king of the Ammonites hath sent Ishmael the son of Nethaniah to slay
thee? But Gedaliah the son of Ahikam believed them not.
