Explanation preview
This verse closes a brief summary of the deportations that followed Jerusalem's fall, listing a third removal in Nebuchadnezzar's twenty-third year under Nebuzaradan, the captain of the guard. The narrator of chapter 52 is recounting the exile for people already living in it, and the numbers differ from other biblical deportation records, something scholars have long discussed without agreement.
