Luke 4:28Easy To Read VersionAll the people in the synagogue {\cf2\super [78]} heard these things. They became very, very angry. See the chapter |
So those officials took Jeremiah and put him into Malkijah’s cistern. {\cf2\super [324]} (Malkijah was the king’s son.) That cistern was in the temple yard where the king’s guard stayed. Those officials used ropes to lower Jeremiah into the cistern. The cistern didn’t have any water in it, but only mud. And Jeremiah sank down into the mud.
Herod {\cf2\super [29]} saw that the wise men had fooled him. Herod was very, very angry. So Herod gave an order to kill all the boys in Bethlehem and in all the area around Bethlehem. Herod had learned from the wise men the time \{the baby was born\}. It was now two years from that time. So Herod said to kill all the boys that were two years old and younger.
