Matthew Poole and continuators on Jeremiah 26:23

23 And they set forth Urijah out of Egypt, and brought him unto Jehoiakim the king, who slew him with the sword, and cast his dead body into the graves of the common people .

These persons sent by Jehojakim, brought back the Prophet by force, he was tried and cast, judged worthy to die, and put to death, and ignominiously buried, not in the Sepulchers of the Prophets, or any men of Repute and f[illegible: 1 letter]shion, but amongst the vulgar People. Which, as also his diligence to send for Vrijah (fled into a forreign Country to save his life) shewed the great Malice of this Prince against the Lords true Prophets; though it had but very ill effects. The summe is (if we take these words as the speech of Jeremiahs Enemies) what do you tell us of what Hez[illegible: 1 letter]kiah did, you have a later instance of it in our present Kings time, the cases of V[illegible: 1 letter]ijah and of Jeremiah were fully parallel. So as the case is a judged case.
