Jeremiah35:4

4 And I brought them into the house of the LORD, into the chamber of the sons of Hanan, the son of Igdaliah a man of God , which was by the chamber of the princes, which was above the chamber of Maaseiah the son of Shallum, the keeper of the door .

This term, the man of God doth in Scripture signifie a Prophet sometimes, but whether it so signifieth here, and if it doth, whether it relateth to Igdaliah or Hanan is a question.

Probably by the chamber of the Princes is meant some chamber where the Princes were wont to meet in a Court, or for Counsel. Thither Ieremiah brings these Rechabites, and sets vessels of Wine before them, not commanding them to drink it, but only inviting them.

Marginal references: Heb. [illegible: 1 word] or vessel.
