Dictionary Summary:The son of Shaphan, and one of the Levites of the temple in the time of Jehoiakim ([Jer. 36:10](/jer#Jer.36.10); [2 Kings 22:12](/2kgs#2Kgs.22.12)). Baruch read aloud to the people from Gemariah’s chamber, and again in the hearing of Gemariah and other scribes, the prophecies of Jeremiah ([Jer. 36:11-20](/jer#Jer.36.11)), which filled him with terror. He joined with others in entreating the king not to destroy the roll of the prophecies which Baruch had read (21-25). 2
