Verses 1-7
Jeremiah’s History from the Fall of Jerusalem till he goes down to Egypt. See Introduction
Verses 1-18
The Capture of Jerusalem (11th year of Zedekiah)
The narrative in this c., with some varieties in detail, coincides with that of Jeremiah 52 and with 2 Kings 25.
1-7. The city taken. Zedekiah’s fate.
3. From the Eng. it would appear that there are six persons named. But Rab-saris (chief of the eunuchs) and Rab-mag (chief of the sorcerers) are only the titles of those whose names they follow.
4. The way of the plain] so as to escape to the eastern bank of Jordan.
5. Riblah] on the high road between Palestine and Babylon.
7. See on Jeremiah 34:3. Putting out the eyes was a common punishment in the East.
8-10. Fate of the city. If we had only this narrative we should suppose that Nebuzaradan was present in person, but Jeremiah 52:12 shows that he did not arrive till a month after the taking of the city.
11-14. Nebuchadnezzar and the prophet.
12. Look well to him] for Jeremiah had always counselled submission to Babylon: cp. Jeremiah 40:1.
14. Gedaliah] see on Jeremiah 26:24
15-18. Message to Ebed-melech.
