Gemariah
    Jehovah has made perfect. (1.) The son of Shaphan, and one of
    the Levites of the temple in the time of Jehoiakim (Jer. 36:10;
    2 Kings 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), 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.) The son of Hilkiah, who accompanied Shaphan with the
    tribute-money from Zedekiah to Nebuchadnezzar, and was the
    bearer at the same time of a letter from Jeremiah to the Jewish
    captives at Babylon (Jer. 29:3, 4).
