Baruch 3:37 is found in the Apocrypha, in the book of Baruch, chapter 3, verse 37.

Baruch is traditionally attributed to Anonymous (attributed to Baruch, scribe of Jeremiah). Likely a composite work. The KJVA prints the Letter of Jeremiah as Baruch chapter 6; some traditions treat it as a separate book. It was written c. 200–100 BC.

Baruch opens with a confession of national sin offered by the exiles in Babylon (1:1–3:8), followed by a beautiful wisdom poem identifying Torah with the Wisdom that God alone bestows (3:9–4:4), and a prophetic word of comfort to a personified Jerusalem (4:5–5:9). Chapter 6 — the Letter of Jeremiah — is an extended polemic warning the exiles against the foolishness of Babylonian idols.

Baruch explores themes including Repentance, Wisdom, Comfort, Exile, Anti-idolatry. These themes shape the meaning and context of Baruch 3:37.
