Pashhur (son of Malchijah)
바스훌 (말기야의 아들)
Named at Nehemiah 11:12 in the line of Adaiah: “and Adaiah the son of Jeroham, the son of Pelaliah, the son of Amzi, the son of Zechariah, the son of Pashhur, the son of Malchijah”. The Korean Revised Version counts the generations (저는 여로함의 아들이요 블라야의 손자요 …, he is the son of Jeroham, the grandson of Pelaliah …) and writes Pelaliah’s name 블라야. Jeremiah 21:1–2 says that King Zedekiah sent Pashhur the son of Malchijah, and Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah, the priest, to Jeremiah, saying, “Please inquire of the LORD for us; for Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon makes war against us. Perhaps the LORD will deal with us according to all his wondrous works, that he may withdraw from us.” Jeremiah 38:1 says that “Pashhur the son of Malchijah”, with Shephatiah the son of Mattan, Gedaliah the son of Pashhur and Jucal the son of Shelemiah, heard the words that Jeremiah spoke to all the people, and 38:4 says that the princes then said to the king, “Please let this man be put to death”.

1Shephatiah the son of Mattan, Gedaliah the son of Pashhur, Jucal the son of Shelemiah, and Pashhur the son of Malchijah heard the words that Jeremiah spoke to all the people, saying,
2“The LORD says, ‘He who remains in this city will die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence, but he who goes out to the Chaldeans will live. He will escape with his life and he will live.’
3The LORD says, ‘This city will surely be given into the hand of the army of the king of Babylon, and he will take it.’”
4Then the princes said to the king, “Please let this man be put to death, because he weakens the hands of the men of war who remain in this city, and the hands of all the people, in speaking such words to them; for this man doesn’t seek the welfare of this people, but harm.”
5Zedekiah the king said, “Behold, he is in your hand; for the king can’t do anything to oppose you.”
6Then they took Jeremiah and threw him into the dungeon of Malchijah the king’s son, that was in the court of the guard. They let down Jeremiah with cords. In the dungeon there was no water, but mire; and Jeremiah sank in the mire.
