the vessels: Romans 9:23, 2 Timothy 2:19-21

five thousand: Instead of 5,400, the enumeration of the articles in 2 Timothy 2:9, 2 Timothy 2:10, only amounts to 2,499; but in the account, Esdras 2 Timothy 2:13, 2 Timothy 2:14, the amount is 5,469, as will be evident from the following statements:

In Ezra In Esdras

Gold chargers 30 Gold cups 1,000

Silver chargers 1,000 Silver cups 1,000

Knives 29 Silver censers 29

Gold basons 30 Gold vials 30

Silver basons 410 Silver vials 2,410

Other vessels 1,000 Other vessels 1,000

Said to be 5,400 Total 5,469

But only 2,499

Deficiency 2,901 Surplus 69

It is supposed that they actually amounted to 5,400, but that only the chief of there specified, the spoons, etc. being omitted.

captivity: Heb. transportation, Matthew 1:11, Matthew 1:12

Gill's Notes on the Bible

All the vessels of gold, and of silver, were five thousand and four hundred,.... Those that are mentioned make no more than 2499, which Aben Ezra thinks were the larger vessels; but this general sum takes in great and small, as in 2 Chronicles 36:18 in the letter of Cyrus, before mentioned, these vessels are more particularly described, and their several numbers given, which together amount to the exact number in the text, 5400; the apocryphal Ezra makes them 5469:

all these did Sheshbazzar bring up with them of the captivity, that were brought up from Babylon unto Jerusalem: of whom there is a large and particular account in the following chapter.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The sum of the numbers as they stand in the present Hebrew text is 2,499, instead of 5,400. In the Apocryphal Book of Esdras the sum given is 5,469, and with this sum the items in that place exactly agree (1 Esdras 2:13, 14). Most commentators propose to correct Ezra by the passage of Esdras; but the items of Esdras are improbable. Probably the sum total in the present passage has suffered corruption.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 11. All the vessels - were five thousand and four hundred. — This place is without doubt corrupted; here it is said the sum of all the vessels, of every quality and kind, was five thousand four hundred; but the enumeration of the articles, as given in Ezra 1:9; Ezra 1:10, gives the sum of two thousand four hundred and ninety-nine only. But we can correct this account from 1Esdras 2:13, 14.

I shall set both accounts down, that they may be compared together.

EZRA, Ezra 1:9-11.
Golden chargers ......	30
Silver chargers .......	1000
Knives ...................	29
Golden basons ........	30
Silver ditto, second sort ...	410
Other vessels .........	1000
	------
Said to be 5400 .......	only 2499
	------
Difference of the first account from itself ..	2901
1 ESDRAS, 1Esdras 2:13, 14.
Golden cups .......	1000
Silver cups .........	1000
Silver censers ....	29
Golden vials ........	30
Silver vials .........	2410
Other vessels ......	1000
	------
Total ................	5469
	------
Difference of the second account from the first ...	69

According, therefore, to the sum total in Ezra, the sum total in Esdras is only 69 different. See the next chapter.

It may be said that the vessels did actually amount to 5400, and that the chief of them only were intended to be specified; and these happen to amount to 2499; but that it was not the design of Ezra to insert the whole; and that the ninth verse should be considered as stating, And of the chief of them, that is, the gold and silver articles, this is the number. But the expression in Ezra 1:10, other vessels, sets this conjecture aside: the place is most manifestly corrupted.
