The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: they let down Jeremiah with cords. And in the dungeon there was no
water, but mire: so Jeremiah sunk in the mire.
JER 38:7 Now when Ebedmelech the Ethiopian, one of the eunuchs which
was in the king's house, heard that they had put Jeremiah in the
dungeon; the king then sitting in the gate of Benjamin;
JER 38:8 Ebedmelech went forth out of the king's house, and spake to
the king saying,
JER 38:9 My lord the king, these men have done evil in all that they
have done to Jeremiah the prophet, whom they have cast into the dungeon;
and he is like to die for hunger in the place where he is: for there is
no more bread in the city.
