And Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came against the city, and his servants did besiege it.
Ver. 11. And his servants did besiege it.] Till their king came himself in person, and entered the city, as Sulpitius hath it: but whereas he addeth, that at this time, urbem murosque ac templum solo stravit, this is utterly false; for Jehoiachin, by yielding up the city, as Jeremiah had advised him, preserved it; wherein he did the part of a good king, saith Josephus.
