“Then read Baruch in the book the words of Jeremiah in the house of the Lord, in the chamber of Gemariah the son of Shaphan the scribe, in the higher court, at the entry of the new gate of the Lord’s house, in the ears of all the people.”
The narrative detail: 'When Micaiah the son of Gemariah, son of Shaphan, heard all the words of the LORD from the scroll,' identifies a key listener. Micaiah's attentiveness to the word sets up his role in transmitting it further.
