carried away. This was the first carrying away, and took place in 654. Compare 1 Chronicles 5:26. The second was by Tiglath-Pileser (= Pul) in the reign of Pekah (649-629). This was the Galilee-Naphtali carrying away (2 Kings 15:29; Isaiah 9:1) referred to in Matthew 4:15. The third was the Samaria deportation in the ninth year of Hoshea and sixth of Hezekiah (611 B. c), and ended the kingdom of Israel (2 Kings 17:3-23; 2 Kings 18:9-12). It was begun by Shalmaneser and ended by Sargon (613-611).
