para que busque en el libro de las historias de nuestros padres; y hallarás en el libro de las historias, y sabrás que esta ciudad es ciudad rebelde, y perjudicial a los reyes y a las provincias, y que de tiempo antiguo forman en medio de ella rebeliones; por lo que esta ciudad fue destruida.

La Biblia de las Americas
a fin de que se investigue en el libro de las Memorias de tus padres. Y en el libro de las Memorias hallarás y sabrás que esa ciudad es una ciudad rebelde y perjudicial a los reyes y a las provincias, y que en tiempos pasados se han incitado rebeliones dentro de ella; por eso fue devastada esa ciudad.
La Biblia Reina-Valera

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

made: within the same, Chal, in the midst thereof

this city: Ezra 4:12, Nehemiah 2:19, Nehemiah 6:6, Esther 3:5-8, Daniel 6:4-13, Acts 17:6, Acts 17:7

moved: Chal

for which: 2 Kings 24:20, 2 Kings 25:1, 2 Kings 25:4, Jeremiah 52:3-34

Reciprocal: Ezra 4:19 - search Ezra 5:17 - let there be Ezra 6:1 - and search Proverbs 25:2 - the honour Acts 25:7 - and laid

Gill's Notes on the Bible

That search may be made in the book of the records of thy fathers,.... That is, his predecessors in the Babylonian monarchy; though, as the Medes and Persians were included in that, and joined the Babylonians in their wars with others, and particularly with the Jews, the records of the Medes and Persians might also be applied to:

so shalt thou find in the book of the records, and know that this city is a rebellious city, and hurtful unto kings and provinces, and that they have moved sedition within the same of old time; against the king of Babylon, particularly in the times of Jehoiakim and Zedekiah:

for which cause was this city destroyed; as it was by Nebuchadnezzar; see 2 Kings 24:1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The book of the records - Compare Esther 2:23; Esther 6:1; Esther 10:2. The existence of such a “book” at the Persian court is attested also by Ctesias.

Of thy fathers - i. e., thy predecessors ripen the throne, Cambyses, Cyrus, etc. If Artaxerxes was the Pseudo-Smerdis (Ezra 4:7 note), these persons were not really his “fathers” or ancestors; but the writers of the letter could not venture to call the king an impostor.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 15. The book of the records of thy fathers — That is, the records of the Chaldeans, to whom the Persians succeeded.
