TSNTyndale Study Notes:

29:24-32 A prophet in Babylon named Shemaiah took issue with Jeremiah’s written advice that the exiles should accept a long exile (29:4-23). Shemaiah sent a letter to a leading priest in Jerusalem, urging him to take action against Jeremiah; Jeremiah responded with a letter to the exiles that condemned Shemaiah.
