Esther 2:6 - Joseph Benson’s Commentary on the Old and New Testaments

Bible Comments

Who had been carried away from Jerusalem This may refer either to Kish, Mordecai's grandfather, last mentioned, or to Mordecai himself, which, however, is not probable, as in that case he must have been a very old man, not less than a hundred and forty years of age.

Esther 2:6

6 Who had been carried away from Jerusalem with the captivity which had been carried away with Jeconiaha king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away.
