Thematic Bible: Notaries in courts of justice

And I will take the book of the purchase, being sealed, the command and laws, and being unrolled: . And I shall give the writing of the purchase to Baruch, son of Neriah, son of Maaseiah, before the eyes of Hanamed mine uncle, and before the eyes of the witnesses, writing in the book of the purchase before the eves of all the Jews sitting in the enclosure of the prison.
