Context — The Prophecy of Exile and Restorationgenerated

19For this is what the LORD of Hosts says about the pillars, the sea, the bases, and the rest of the articles that remain in this city,
20which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon did not take when he carried Jeconiah son of Jehoiakim king of Judah into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon, along with all the nobles of Judah and Jerusalem.
21Yes, this is what the LORD of Hosts, the God of Israel, says about the articles that remain in the house of the LORD, in the palace of the king of Judah, and in Jerusalem:
22‘They will be carried to Babylon and will remain there until the day I attend to them again,’ declares the LORD. ‘Then I will bring them back and restore them to this place.’”

Jeremiah 27:22 conveys a message from the LORD about the exile of the people to Babylon. This passage reflects a time of judgment and the eventual hope of restoration. The context includes the fate of the articles that remained in Jerusalem and the assurance of God's attention to His people, emphasizing His sovereignty over their circumstances.

The Key Word בָּבֶ֥לָה, ba.Ve.lahgenerated

The term בָּבֶל (Babel) refers to Babylon, an ancient city known for its association with confusion, derived from the root meaning 'to mix' or 'confound.' The mention of Babylon in this verse signifies the place where the people will be taken as captives.

In this context, Babylon represents not just a geographical location but also a symbol of the captivity and confusion that the exiled people would experience. The parsing indicates that it is a proper noun, emphasizing its significance as a city of great historical and prophetic importance.


How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated

In the Berean Standard Bible, the verse uses the word Babylon, which is consistent across the KJV, ASV, YLT, WEB, and BBE.


Sentence Structuregenerated

The structure of this verse is governed by the main verb יוּבָ֖אוּ (they will be taken), which is followed by several phrases that elaborate on the action: a prepositional phrase indicating the destination, an adverbial phrase describing the state of being, and additional clauses that provide context about the time and purpose of the LORD's actions.

The arrangement of the Hebrew words emphasizes the certainty of the exile and the future restoration, with the main action (the taking to Babylon) positioned prominently at the beginning of the sentence.


Septuagint Backgroundgenerated

The Septuagint translates בָּבֶל as βαβυλῶνα (Babylon), maintaining the same geographical reference as the Hebrew text. This consistency underscores the significance of Babylon as a place of exile.

The choice of the Greek term reflects the translators' intent to convey the same meaning and context as the Hebrew, indicating the importance of Babylon in the narrative of exile and restoration.

(22) They shall be carried to Babylon.—The fulfilment of the prediction is recorded in 2 Kings 25:13-17. Until the day that I visit them.—The date is not given definitely, but seventy years had been already named as the period between the plunder and the restoration (Jeremiah 25:12). Here the undefined vagueness of “the day that I will visit them” is contrasted with the equally indefinite but more exciting “shortly” of the false prophets (Jeremiah 27:16).

da (yom; hemera): This common word has caused some trouble to plain readers, because they have not noticed that the word is used in several different senses in the English Bible. When the different uses of the word are understood the difficulty of interpretation vanishes. We note several different uses of the word:

(1) It sometimes means the time from daylight till dark. This popular meaning is easily discovered by the context, e. g. Ge 1:5; 8:22, etc. The marked periods of this daytime were morning, noon and night, as with us. See Ps 55:17. The early hours were sometimes called "the cool of the day" (Ge 3:8). After the exile the day. or daytime was divided into twelve hours and the night into twelve (see

Day

The Jews reckoned the day from sunset to sunset (Lev. 23:32). It was originally divided into three parts (Ps. 55:17). “The heat of the day” (1 Sam. 11:11; Neh. 7:3) was at our nine o’clock, and “the cool of the day” just before sunset (Gen. 3:8). Before the Captivity the Jews divided the night into three watches, (1) from sunset to midnight (Lam. 2:19); (2) from midnight till the cock-crowing (Judg. 7:19); and (3) from the cock-crowing till sunrise (Ex.…

The variable length of the natural day at different seasons led in the very earliest times to the adoption of the civil day (or one revolution of the sun) as a standard of time. The Hebrews reckoned the day from evening to evening, (Leviticus 23:32) deriving it from (Genesis 1:5) "the evening and the morning were the first day." The Jews are supposed, like the modern Arabs, to have adopted from an early period minute specifications of the parts of the natural day. Roughly, indeed, they were content to divide it into "morning, evening and noonday," (Psalms 55:17) but when they wished for greater accuracy they pointed to six unequal parts, each of which was again subdivided. These are held to have been -- "the dawn." "Sunrise."…

American Tract Society Bible Dictionary

The day is distinguished into natural, civil, and artificial. The natural day is one revolution of the earth on its axis. The civil day is that, the beginning and the end of which are determined by the custom of any nation. The Hebrews began their day in the evening, Le 23:32; the Babylonians at sunrise; and we begin at midnight. The artificial day is the time of the sun’s continuance above the horizon, which is unequal according to different seasons, on account of the obliquity of the equator. The sacred writers generally divide the day into twelve hours. The sixth hour always ends at noon throughout the year; and the twelfth hour is the last hour before sunset. But in summer, all the hours of the day were longer than in winter, while those of night were shorter. See HOURS, and THREE.

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.

זֶה (zeh) is a demonstrative pronoun meaning 'this' or 'here.' It can stand alone, be used appositively, or function as a predicate. The word can also attach enclitically to interrogative pronouns, adding emphasis and directness. In poetry, it may serve as a relative pronoun, though this usage is rare.
