12:6 Jeremiah’s family was a microcosm of Judah; they would plot . . . against Jeremiah behind his back (11:9) while speaking pleasantly to his face. They wanted to convince him that the Lord would not let the Babylonians harm the people of Judah and Jerusalem, and they hoped to stop him from bringing shame on the family (cp. Mark 3:21).
