Where Jehudi appears in Scripture

Jeremiah 36

וַיִּשְׁלְחוּ כָל-הַשָּׂרִים אֶל-בָּרוּךְ אֶת-יְהוּדִי בֶּן-נְתַנְיָהוּ בֶּן-שֶׁלֶמְיָהוּ בֶן-כּוּשִׁי לֵאמֹר הַמְּגִלָּה אֲשֶׁר קָרָאתָ בָּהּ בְּאָזְנֵי הָעָם קָחֶנָּה בְיָדְךָ וָלֵךְ וַיִּקַּח בָּרוּךְ בֶּן-נֵרִיָּהוּ אֶת-הַמְּגִלָּה בְּיָדוֹ וַיָּבֹא אֲלֵיהֶֽם׃
14
Therefore all the princes sent Jehudi the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, unto Baruch, saying, Take in thine hand the roll wherein thou hast read in the ears of the people, and come. So Baruch the son of Neriah took the roll in his hand, and came unto them.
וַיִּשְׁלַח הַמֶּלֶךְ אֶת-יְהוּדִי לָקַחַת אֶת-הַמְּגִלָּה וַיִּקָּחֶהָ מִלִּשְׁכַּת אֱלִישָׁמָע הַסֹּפֵר וַיִּקְרָאֶהָ יְהוּדִי בְּאָזְנֵי הַמֶּלֶךְ וּבְאָזְנֵי כָּל-הַשָּׂרִים הָעֹמְדִים מֵעַל הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
21
So the king sent Jehudi to fetch the roll: and he took it out of Elishama the scribe's chamber. And Jehudi read it in the ears of the king, and in the ears of all the princes which stood beside the king.
וַיְהִי׀ כִּקְרוֹא יְהוּדִי שָׁלֹשׁ דְּלָתוֹת וְאַרְבָּעָה יִֽקְרָעֶהָ בְּתַעַר הַסֹּפֵר וְהַשְׁלֵךְ אֶל-הָאֵשׁ אֲשֶׁר אֶל-הָאָח עַד-תֹּם כָּל-הַמְּגִלָּה עַל-הָאֵשׁ אֲשֶׁר עַל-הָאָֽח׃
23
And it came to pass, that when Jehudi had read three or four leaves, he cut it with the penknife, and cast it into the fire that was on the hearth, until all the roll was consumed in the fire that was on the hearth.
