Contextual Overview

¹²On the tenth day of the fifth month, in the nineteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar's reign over Babylon, Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard, a servant of the king of Babylon, entered Jerusalem. ¹³He burned down the house of the LORD, the royal palace, and all the houses of Jerusalem-every significant building. ¹⁴And the whole army of the Chaldeans under the captain of the guard broke down all the walls around Jerusalem. ¹⁵Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried into exile some of the poorest people and those who remained in the city, along with the deserters who had defected to the king of Babylon and the rest of the craftsmen. ¹⁶But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left behind the rest of the poor of the land to be vinedressers and farmers.¹⁷Moreover, the Chaldeans broke up the bronze pillars and the stands and the bronze sea in the house of the LORD, and they carried all the bronze to Babylon. ¹⁸They also took away the pots, shovels, wick trimmers, sprinkling basins, dishes, and all the articles of bronze used in the temple service. ¹⁹The captain of the guard also took away the bowls, censers, sprinkling basins, pots, lampstands, pans, and drink offering bowls-anything made of pure gold or fine silver. ²⁰As for the two pillars, the sea, the twelve bronze bulls under it, and the movable stands that King Solomon had made for the house of the LORD, the weight of the bronze from all these articles was beyond measure. ²¹Each pillar was eighteen cubits tall and twelve cubits in circumference; each was hollow, four fingers thick.

But Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard left [certain] of the poor of the land,.... Of the land of Judea, who lived in the country, and had not been concerned in defending the city against the Chaldeans:

for vinedressers, and for husbandmen; to look after the vineyards and fields, and dress and manure them, that the king of Babylon might receive some advantage by the conquest he had made;
