In the tenth month, in the fifth day of the month; that is one year and five months after the thing was done, and temple burnt, and the city sacked. One that had escaped; one whose own care, but God's wonderful providence had much more, befriended him; perhaps it might be one of those that yielded to the Babylonians before, but was resolved to see the upshot of all. Saying; likely giving a particular account of the whole. The city; Jerusalem. Smitten; taken and plundered, the inhabitants slain or captives, and the city sacked, razed, and burnt.
