RF JER 52:1 A Hebrew Editors Supplementary Note describing the Capture of Jerusalem.
Zedekiah was twenty-one years old at his coronation, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah.
RF JER 52:2 But he did wrong in the eyes of the EVER-LIVING, in every way that Jhoiakim had done;
RF JER 52:3 for it came from the anger of the LORD against Jerusalem and Judah, to make them fling themselves from His presence, and Zedekiah to the king of Babel.
RF JER 52:4 So it arrived in the ninth year of his reign, in the tenth day of the tenth month, that King Nebukhadnezzar, king of Babel, came with all his forces to Jerusalem, and encamped against it, and built an embankment around,
RF JER 52:5 and continued the siege till the eleventh year of Zedekiah,
RF JER 52:6 to the ninth of the fourth month, when a famine seized the city, and there was no bread for the people of the country.
RF JER 52:7 Then a breach was made from the city, and all the soldiers fled, and left the town by night by way of a gate in the walls which were opposite the Royal Garden, and the Kasdim who surrounded the city, and they marched towards the Black Desert.
RF JER 52:8 The army of the Kasdim, however, followed after the king, and overtook Zedekiah in the Black Desert near Jerico, when all the army deserted him.
RF JER 52:9 They consequently seized the king, and brought him to the king of Babel at Riblath, in the district of Hamath, and he dictated conditions to him.
RF JER 52:10 Then the king of Babel murdered the children of Zedekiah before his eyes, and also murdered all the nobles of Judah in Riblath.
RF JER 52:11 He afterwards dug out the eyes of Zedekiah, and loaded him with chains, and they took him with the king of Babel to Babel, and put him into the Convicts Prison until the time of his death.
RF JER 52:12 But on the tenth of the fifth month, in the twelfth year of King Nebukhadnezzar, king of Babel, Nebuzaradon, Commander of the Guards, represented the king of Babel in Jerusalem,
RF JER 52:13 and burnt the House of the EVER-LIVING, and the Royal Palace, and all the houses of Jerusalem, and every palace of the great, he consumed with fire.
RF JER 52:14 And all the army of the Kasdim who were with the Commander of the Guards, threw down the walls surrounding Jerusalem.
RF JER 52:15 Then Nebuzaradon, the Commander of the Guards, transported the lowest of the people, and the rest of the populace left in the city, and the deserters who had deserted to the king of Babel, and the remainder of the mechanics.
RF JER 52:16 However, Nebuzaradon, Commander of the Guards left the lower classes of the country to be vine dressers and ploughmen.
RF JER 52:17 The Pillars of brass that were before the House of the EVER-LIVING, however, and the pedestals, and the Brazen Sea that was in the House of the EVER-LIVING, the Kasdim broke up, and carried the brass to Babel;
RF JER 52:18 with the boilers, and the shovels, and the snuffers, and basins, and spoons, and all the instruments of brass they used in the services were taken away.
RF JER 52:19 The Commander of the Guards also took away the cups, and fire pans, and basins, and pots, with the candlesticks, and spoons and bowls; what was of gold as gold, and what was of silver, as silver.
RF JER 52:20 The two pillars; the Single Sea, the twelve bronze bulls which were under the pedestals that King Solomon had made for the House of the EVER-LIVING. The bronze of all this furniture was not weighed.
RF JER 52:21 The height of the pillars was eighteen cubits for the first pillar, and its circumference was twelve cubits. It was hollow and four inches thick. It had upon it a capital of bronze.
RF JER 52:22 The height of that capital was five cubits, with a network of pomegranates around the capital,—all bronze. The second pillar was the same, with pomegranates.
RF JER 52:23 There were ninety-six pomegranates towards the winds—all the pomegranates upon the surrounding network were a hundred.
RF JER 52:24 The Commander of the Guards also took Seriah the Chief Priest, and Zephaniah the Second Priest, and the three Guardians of the Threshold.
RF JER 52:25 From the city he also took an officer who was adjutant of the soldiery; and seven officers of the Privy Council, whom he found in the city, and the Chief Secretary of the Commander in Chief of the native army, and sixty nobles from the country people, whom he found amongst the townsmen.
RF JER 52:26 Nebuzaradon, Commander of the Guards, took these and conducted them to the king of Babel at Riblath,
RF JER 52:27 when the king of Babel assailed and put them to death at Riblath, in the district of Hamath, but he transported the Jews from their own country.
RF JER 52:28 These are the people whom Nebukhadnezzar transported in his seventh year. Three thousand and twenty-three Jews.
RF JER 52:29 In Nebukhadnezzar's eighteenth year,—eight hundred and thirty-two persons from Jerusalem.
RF JER 52:30 In the twenty-third year of Nebukhadnezzar, Nebuzaradon, the Commander of the Guards, transported seven hundred and forty-two persons of the Jews. All the persons were four thousand, six hundred.
RF JER 52:31 It occurred, however, in the thirty-seventh year of the captivity of Jhoiakim, king of Judah, in the twenty-fifth of the twelfth month, that Evil-Merodak, king of Babel, in the year of his coronation raised the king of Judah, and brought him from his imprisonment,
RF JER 52:32 and spoke kindly to him and gave him a seat above the kings who were with him in Babel.
RF JER 52:33 He also changed his prison dress; and he always dined in his presence so long as he lived.
RF JER 52:34 He was given a regular pension by the king of Babel, paid day by day during his life, until his death.
