Jeremiah 41:17
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
And they went and stayed in Geruth Chimham, near Bethlehem, in order to proceed into Egypt
In context
15 But Ishmael son of Nethaniah and eight of his men escaped from Johanan and went to the Ammonites.
16 Then Johanan son of Kareah and all the commanders of the armies with him took the whole remnant of the people from Mizpah whom he had recovered from Ishmael son of Nethaniah after Ishmael had killed Gedaliah son of Ahikam: the soldiers, women, children, and court officials he had brought back from Gibeon.
17 And they went and stayed in Geruth Chimham, near Bethlehem, in order to proceed into Egypt
18 to escape the Chaldeans. For they were afraid of the Chaldeans because Ishmael son of Nethaniah had struck down Gedaliah son of Ahikam, whom the king of Babylon had appointed over the land.
