Commentary on Jeremiah 37:3
Even wicked King Zedekiah recognized Jeremiah's prophetic authority enough to request prayer, yet he wouldn't obey the prophet's counsel. This reveals the inconsistency of seeking God's help while rejecting His word. Many desire God's blessings without submitting to His lordship. Prayer without obedience is presumption. Zedekiah wanted deliverance on his terms, not God's.
