Context — The Babylonian Exilegenerated
2 Kings 24:14 describes the moment when Nebuchadnezzar carried off the inhabitants of Jerusalem, including its leaders, skilled craftsmen, and warriors, into Babylonian captivity. This event marked a significant turning point in Israel's history, as the city of peace was left desolate, with only the poorest of the land remaining. The context highlights the consequences of disobedience to God and the fulfillment of prophetic warnings about exile, as seen in other prophetic books.

The Key Word — גָּלָה, ve.hig.Lahgenerated
The verb גָּלָה (galah) means to reveal or uncover, but in this context, it specifically refers to the act of exiling individuals from their homeland. This usage emphasizes the forced removal and the shame associated with being taken into captivity.
The Hiphil form indicates that the subject causes the action to happen, here showing that Nebuchadnezzar actively carried the people into exile. This word captures the gravity of the situation, as it not only denotes physical removal but also the emotional and spiritual implications of being uprooted from one's home.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb of the verse is הִגְלָה, he carried into exile, which governs the entire sentence. The structure includes a series of noun phrases that detail the subjects of the exile, providing clarity on who was taken and who remained.
The Hebrew word order places emphasis on the totality of those exiled, with the main clause followed by a series of enumerations that specify the groups affected, enhancing the impact of the narrative.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates גָּלָה as ἀπῴκισεν, which carries the connotation of establishing a colony or settlement. This choice reflects a broader interpretation of the act of exile, suggesting not just removal but also the establishment of a new order in Babylon.
This translation indicates a shift in focus from mere physical removal to the implications of resettlement and the consequences for the displaced people.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
2 Kings 24:14 tells us that Nebuchadnezzar exiled all of Jerusalem, taking the leaders, mighty warriors, craftsmen, and smiths, totaling ten thousand captives. Only the poorest people of the land remained behind, highlighting the devastation of the city and the plight of its inhabitants.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
This indicates that the entire population of Jerusalem, except for the poorest, was forcibly removed and taken to Babylon, marking a significant moment of loss and change for the city.
The poorest were likely seen as less valuable for labor or military service, making them less of a priority for exile compared to the skilled and powerful members of society.
This event represents the fulfillment of prophetic warnings about Israel's disobedience to God and serves as a pivotal moment in the narrative of the Israelites, leading to their eventual return.
This verse connects with various prophetic texts that foretell exile, such as those in Jeremiah and Ezekiel, illustrating the consequences of turning away from God.

The total number of captives was 10,000.

Jerusalem
Called also Salem, Ariel, Jebus, the “city of God,” the “holy city;” by the modern Arabs el-Khuds, meaning “the holy;” once “the city of Judah” (2 Chr. 25:28). This name is in the original in the dual form, and means “possession of peace,” or “foundation of peace.” The dual form probably refers to the two mountains on which it was built, viz., Zion and Moriah; or, as some suppose, to the two parts of the city, the “upper” and the “lower city.” Jerusalem is a “mountain city enthroned on a mountain fastness” (comp. Ps. 68:15, 16; 87:1; 125:2; 76:1, 2; 122:3). It stands on the edge of one of the highest table-lands in Palestine, and is surrounded on the south-eastern, the southern, and the western sides by deep and precipitous ravines.
(the habitation of peace), Jerusalem stands in latitude 31 degrees 46’ 35" north and longitude 35 degrees 18’ 30" east of Greenwich. It is 32 miles distant from the sea and 18 from the Jordan, 20 from Hebron and 36 from Samaria. "In several respects," says Dean Stanley, "its situation is singular among the cities of Palestine. Its elevation is remarkable; occasioned not from its being on the summit of one of the numerous hills of Judea, like most of the towns and villages, but because it is on the edge of one of the highest table-lands of the country. Hebron indeed is higher still by some hundred feet, and from the south, accordingly (even from Bethlehem), the approach to Jerusalem is by a slight descent. But from any other side the ascent is perpetual; and to the traveller approaching the city from the east or west it must always have presented the appearance beyond any other capital…
The chief city of the Holy Land, and to the Christian the most illustrious in the world. It is situated in 31 degrees 46’43" N. lat., and 35 degrees 13’ E. long. on elevated ground south of the center of the country, about thirty-seven miles from the Mediterranean, and about twenty-four from the Jordan. Its site was early hallowed by God’s trial of Abraham’s faith, Ge 22:1-24 2Ch 3:1. It was on the border of the tribes of Benjamin and Judah, mostly within the limits of the former, but reckoned as belonging to the latter, because conquered by it, Jos 15:8 18:16,28 Jud 1:18. The most ancient name of the city was Salem, Ge…

ov:
(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
OF, preposition ov. [Gr.]
1. From or out of; proceeding from, as the cause, source, means, author or agent bestowing.
I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered to you. 1 Corinthians 11:1.
For it was of the Lord to harden their hearts. Joshua 11:1.

Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…

(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.
