Jeremiah 36:4 "Then Jeremiah called Baruch, the son of Neriah, and Baruch wrote upon a scroll at the dictation of Jeremiah, all the words of the Lord, which he had spoken to him." 
 

Jeremiah was the one getting the Lord's messages, God had even instructed him in the immediately prior verses to take a scroll and write on it all the words God had ever said to him (Jeremiah 36:2-3), yet Jeremiah then got Baruch to write the words as dictation, and then sent him to read the scroll at the house of the Lord, where Jeremiah has been prohibited from going. I am guessing Jeremiah thought to have Baruch take this dictation so that Baruch could more easily read the scroll to the people than if he was reading unfamiliar words written in someone else's handwriting. 

I think the main lesson for me here is that I have to rely more on others, especially my friends. I have a very strong tendency to do everything myself, especially if it is a task I feel is uniquely mine. If God had told me to write things down on a scroll, I most certainly would have thought it had to be me doing the writing. I would not have considered asking someone else to take dictation, that would have seemed to me to be not in conformity with what God had asked me to do. But that is me being too focused on the letter of the law and, frankly, a bit prideful.
 

God gave Jeremiah these words so that the people would hear them, not so that Jeremiah could exercise some kind of ownership or copyright of them. Jeremiah wisely considered that the people would be more likely to hear and understand the words if Baruch took them as dictation. So without a thought for the fact that God had been speaking to him, and told him to take these words down, Jeremiah asked Baruch to do it. This shows that Jeremiah has the right frame of mind about what is going on – he does not care if he gets any credit, nor does he feel any uncertainty about how he approaches his task – he just understands God's purpose, and then finds the best way to accomplish it. And because he did it this way, God now has Baruch to work with, as well.
 

Over the last few years I watched as many voices who were trying to tell us the truth, or even just explore what the truth might be, were silenced by Big Tech, Big Media, Big Government, and, most discouragingly, the people who had been influenced by those forces (of whom there were many more than I ever thought possible!). The situation was much like Jeremiah's, people were being barred from the "public square" so that others would not hear what they had to say. Despite the censorship, though, the truth-seekers' message got out. They found other platforms and like-minded helpers to spread their thoughts and evidence. They were able to keep their message alive by relying on others for help, just like Jeremiah did. Even though many still think of them as spreaders of misinformation, and the official "narrative" still seems to be the prevalent one (for now, at least), these people kept the spark of the scientific method and freedom of thought and expression alive, even when they found themselves at the bottom of a pit. I admire them greatly, and I hope I can take a page from their book (perhaps as dictated to another!) when I have need to.
