RF KI2 25:1 (B.C. 588.) Zedekiah Revolts, but Nebukhadnezzar crushes him.
In consequence, in the ninth year, on the tenth of the tenth month, Nebukhadnezzar, king of Babel, came with all his forces to Jerusalem, and encamped against it, and they built a surrounding wall against it,
RF KI2 25:2 and the siege of the city went on to the eleventh year of King Zedekiah.
RF KI2 25:3 At the ninth month the famine became terrible in the city, and there was no bread for the people of the country,
RF KI2 25:4 so he burst from the city with a force of soldiers by night, by way of the wall which is towards the Royal Garden, although the Kasidim were around the city, and marched towards the desert.
RF KI2 25:5 But the forces of the Kasidim pursued after the king, and overtook him at the fords of Jerikho, with all his army, who scattered from him.
RF KI2 25:6 They consequently seized the king, and carried him to the king of Babel at. Riblath, and reported to him for a decision,
RF KI2 25:7 when he killed the children of Zedekiah before his eyes—then pulled out the eyes of Zedekiah himself, and bound him in chains and had him carried to Babel.
RF KI2 25:8 (B.C. 588.) Nebukhadnezzar burns the temple and all of Jerusalem.
Afterwards, in the seventh of the fifth month, of the nineteenth year of King Nebukhadnezzar, king of Babel, Nebuzaradan came with many slaughterers, servants of the king of Babel, to Jerusalem,
RF KI2 25:9 and burnt the house of the EVER-LIVING, and the Royal Palace, and all the houses of Jerusalem, and every mansion was burnt with fire.
RF KI2 25:10 Then all the army of the Kasidim, with the slaughterers, broke down the walls around Jerusalem.
RF KI2 25:11 Nebuzaradan, chief of the slaughterers, afterwards transported the remnant of the people of the city, with the deserters who had deserted to the king of Babel, and the rest of the great crowd.
RF KI2 25:12 However, Nebuzaradan, chief of the slaughterers, left the lower classes as farmers and diggers.
RF KI2 25:13 The Kasidim also broke up the Pillars of brass that were at the House of the EVER-LIVING, and the Bases, and the Brazen Sea which was in the EVER-LIVING'S House, and carried the brass to Babel,
RF KI2 25:14 with the pots, and the brushes, and sprinklers, and the tongs, and took all tile appliances of brass, which were made use of.
RF KI2 25:15 The snuffers and scissors that were of gold, for gold, and what were of silver, for silver, the chief of the slaughterers took.
RF KI2 25:16 And the two Pillars, the Single Sea, and the Pillars that Solomon made for the House of the EVER-LIVING were not weighed, for they were fabrics of brass.
RF KI2 25:17 They were eighteen cubits high, and stood each with its crown of brass,—and the height of the crown was three cubits, with a network, and pomegranates around the crown. The whole of brass, and the second pillar was like it, with its crown.
RF KI2 25:18 The Chief Slaughterer also took Sariah, the Chief Priest, and Zefaniah, the Second Priest, and the Commander of the Guard of the Threshold;
RF KI2 25:19 and from the city he took a eunuch who was stationed over the War Office, and five princes, attendants of the king, whom he found in the city, and the Adjutant General of the Army of the nation, with sixteen from the Parliament of the country, whom he found in the town;
RF KI2 25:20 Nebuzaradan, Chief of the Slaughterers, took these and conducted them to the king of Babel at Riblath,
RF KI2 25:21 where the king of Babel assailed and put them to death in Riblath, in the district of Khamath.
RF KI2 25:22 Thus he transported Judah from its land. But for the remainder of the people in the land of Judah, Nebukhadnezzar, king of Babel, appointed over them Gedaliah-ben-Akhiakam-ben-Shafan.
RF KI2 25:23 (B.C. 588.) Gedaliah Appointed Governor.
But when the Generals of the forces, they and the Princes, heard that the king of Babel had appointed Gedaliah, they came to Gedaliah at Mitzfah, with Ishmael-ben-Nathan, and Jhonathan-ben-Karakh, and Sariah-ben-Thankhumeth the Nataphite, and Jazniah-ben-Hamakathi,—these and their men,
RF KI2 25:24 when Gedaliah swore to them and their men, and said, "Fear nothing from the officers of the Kasidim who are stationed in the country, who serve the king of Babel," and bowed to them.
RF KI2 25:25 (B.C. 588.) Gedaliah Murdered and the People Fly to Egypt.
However, in the seventh month, Ishmael-ben-Nathaniah-ben-Alishamah, of the Royal family, came, and ten men with him, and assailed Gedaliah, and killed him, and the Judeans and Kasidim who were with him at Mitzfah.
RF KI2 25:26 Then all the people arose, from the least to the greatest, with the officers of the forces, and went to the Mitzeraim, for they were afraid of the Kasidim.
RF KI2 25:27 (B.C. 562.) Jhoiakim freed from Prison.
In the thirty-seventh year from the transportation of Jhoiakim, king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, Avil-Merodakh, king of Babel, in the year of his coronation, raised the head of Jhoiakim, king of Judah, from prison,
RF KI2 25:28 and spoke kindly to him, and gave him a seat above the seats of the other kings who were at Babel.
RF KI2 25:29 He also removed his prison dress from him, and he ate his food continually in his presence all the time that he lived.
RF KI2 25:30 And from thence-forward the king regularly supplied a daily allowance during his life.
