Jeremiah 39:18

Adam Clarke
Bible Commentary

I will surely deliver thee - Thou hast feared the Lord, and not the king, nor his princes, and thou hast taken the part of the prophet, and become his intercessor. Thou shalt not be slain. Thou hast put thy trust in me; thou shalt therefore be safe whithersoever thou goest. They that fear God need fear nothing besides.

Albert Barnes
Notes on the Whole Bible

A prey unto thee - An unexpected and unlooked-for gain. He had given proof of faith in courageously delivering God‘s prophet.

Matthew Henry
Concise Bible Commentary
Here is a message to assure Ebed-melech of a recompence for his great kindness to Jeremiah. Because thou hast put thy trust in me, saith the Lord. God recompenses men's services according to their principles. Those who trust God in the way of duty, as this good man did, will find that their hope shall not fail in times of the greatest danger.
Ellen G. White
Selected Messages Book 3, 148.2

“Unworthy, unworthy of the least of Thy favors, O my God,” is my cry. My only hope is in a crucified and risen Saviour. I claim the merits of the blood of Christ. Jesus will save to the uttermost all who put their trust in Him.—The Review and Herald, November 1, 1881. 3SM 148.2
