Commentary
Gill's Exposition
And he carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon,.... Where he continued at least thirty seven years, Kg2 25:27 . and the king's mother; whose name was Nehushta, Kg2 24:8 . and
the king's wives; for though he was so young, it seems he had many wives, as was the custom of those times; or his "women", who were either his concubines, or servants in his family: and his officers; in his court: and the mighty of the land; the princes and nobles thereof; or "the fools of the land", as the word is written; so the people generally were: those carried he into captivity from Jerusalem to Babylon; which, according to Bunting (s), were six hundred and eighty miles distant from each other.
