The Babylonian Empire From the ESV Study Bible

c. 597, 586, 582 B.C.

Jeremiah witnessed multiple deportations of many of his fellow Judeans to Babylon (see 52:28–

30), which he and other prophets had foretold would happen if the people did not repent of their

wickedness. Jeremiah specifically foretold that the exiles would remain in Babylon for 70 years,

after which time the Lord would punish the Babylonians themselves for their wickedness (25:11–

12).

The Fall of Jerusalem From the ESV Study Bible

586 B.C.

As punishment for Zedekiah’s rebellion, Nebuchadnezzar attacked Jerusalem. After the Babylonians

had made a breach in the wall at the middle gate, Zedekiah realized his fate was sealed if he stayed

in the city, so he and his soldiers attempted to escape during the night through a gate between

two walls at the southeast corner of the city. The Babylonians overtook him near Jericho, however,

and he was sent to Riblah for judgment. Then Nebuchadnezzar destroyed the walls of Jerusalem

and the temple and exiled many of the people to Babylon (see 52:1–34).
