Jeremiah 36:25

25 The king did not even listen to Elnathan, Delaiah, and Gemariah, who had urged him not to burn the scroll. ^{▼▼ Heb “And also Elnathan, Delaiah, and Gemariah urged [or had urged] the king not to burn the scroll, but he did not listen to them.” The translation attempts to lessen the clash in chronological sequencing with the preceding. This sentence is essentially a flash back to a time before the scroll was totally burned (v. 23).}
