Seal of “Yehuchal Son of Shelemiah”
During excavations from 2005 to 2008 in the City of David, archaeologist Eilat Mazar discovered seal impressions or bullae containing the names of the officials from the Book of Jeremiah.
This bulla reads: “Belonging to Yehuchal son of Shelemyahu.”
In chapter 37 Jehuchal son of Shelemiah initially went to inquire of Jeremiah. When Jeremiah's prophecy was deemed too dark, Jehucal and other officials conspired to have Jeremiah killed.
