Jeremiah 26:3

     3. if so be—expressed according to human conceptions; not as if God did not foreknow all contingencies, but to mark the obstinacy of the people and the difficulty of healing them; and to show His own goodness in making the offer which left them without excuse [CALVIN].

Jeremiah 26:19

     19. Hezekiah, so far from killing him, was led "to fear the Lord," and pray for remission of the sentence against Judah (2Ch 32:26).

      Lord repented— (Ex 32:14; 2Sa 24:16).

      Thus—if we kill Jeremiah.
