BETH. Plorans ploravit in nocte, et lacrim ejus in maxillis ejus : non est qui consoletur eam, et omnibus caris ejus ; omnes amici ejus spreverunt eam, et facti sunt ei inimici.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
In the fifth [day] of the month,.... The month Tammuz, as before:
(which [was] the fifth year of Jehoiachin's captivity); the same with Jeconiah and Coniah, as he is sometimes called; he was taken by the king of Babylon, when he had reigned but three months, and his captivity held seven and thirty years, 2 Kings 24:8.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The Jewish date. This verse and Ezekiel 1:3, which seem rather to interrupt the course of the narrative, may have been added by the prophet when he revised and put together the whole book. The word “captivity” (as in Ezekiel 1:1) refers to the “transportation” of the king and others from their native to foreign soil. This policy of settling a conquered people in lands distant from their home, begun by the Assyrians, was continued by the Persians and by Alexander the Great. The Jews were specially selected for such settlements, and this was no doubt a Providential preparation for the Gospel, the dispersed Jews carrying with them the knowledge of the true God and the sacred Scriptures, and thus paving the way for the messengers of the kingdom of Christ.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezekiel 1:2. Jehoiachin's captivity — Called also Jeconiah and Coniah; see 2 Kings 24:12. He was carried away by Nebuchadnezzar; see 2 Kings 24:14.
