“And I gave the evidence of the purchase unto Baruch the son of Neriah, the son of Maaseiah, in the sight of Hanameel mine uncle’s son, and in the presence of the witnesses that subscribed the book of the purchase, before all the Jews that sat in the court of the prison.”
The handing of 'the deed of purchase to Baruch the son of Neriah' places the document with the prophet's trusted scribe. Baruch's role as witness and keeper of the deed suggests that he will carry this testimony to future generations.
