Tetapi ketika Nebukadnezar, raja Babel, bergerak maju melawan negeri ini, maka kami berkata: Marilah kita mengungsi ke Yerusalem, karena tentara orang Kasdim dan tentara orang Aram itu! Demikianlah kami diam di Yerusalem."
Maka jadi, apabila Nebukadnezar, raja Babil itu, berangkat ke tanah ini, kami berkata demikian: Mari kita pergi ke Yeruzalem, dari karena takut akan balatentara orang Kasdim dan dari karena takut akan balatentara orang Syam, sebab itulah sekarang adalah kami di Yeruzalem.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
But it came to pass, when Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came up into the land,.... Into the land of Judea to invade it, which was in the reign of Jehoiakim, in the fourth year of it, after he had served him three years, and rebelled against him;
:-;
that we said, come, and let us go to Jerusalem; they said one to another, let us not stay here to be destroyed by a foreign enemy; but let us go to Jerusalem, a fortified city, where we may be safe:
for fear of the army of the Chaldeans, and for fear of the army of the Syrians; for Nebuchadnezzar's army in this expedition consisted of Chaldeans and Syrians, and of other nations, 2 Kings 24:2;
so we dwell at Jerusalem; for the present. It seems as though this was quickly after Nebuchadnezzar's incursion, and when he was but just departed; so that their fears had not wholly subsided; and they, as yet, had not returned to their tents, and former manner of living: hence it appears that the Rechabites did not look upon this command of their father as equal to a divine precept, which must be always obeyed; but that in case of necessity it might be dispensed with, and especially when in danger of life, and when human prudence required it; and in which case the lawgiver himself would have dispensed with it, had he been on the spot.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The Syrians - The Septuagint substitutes Assyrians for Syrians, but marauding bands of the Aramaeans are probably meant.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 35:11. But - when Nebuchadnezzar - came up — If at present we appear to be acting contrary in any respect to our institutions, in being found in the city, necessity alone has induced us to take this temporary step. We have sought the shelter of the city for the preservation of our lives; so now we dwell at Jerusalem.
