A military leader who tried to protect Judah's remnant — then ignored Jeremiah and fled to Egypt
After Gedaliah's assassination, Johanan son of Kareah emerged as the leader of the remaining Jews in Judah (Jeremiah 40-43). He asked Jeremiah to seek God's guidance about whether to flee to Egypt. Jeremiah said stay in the land and God will protect you. Johanan and the people did the exact opposite — they went to Egypt anyway, dragging Jeremiah with them.
