“And the city was besieged unto the eleventh year of king Zedekiah.”
King James Version (KJV)
25:1 Came - To chastise Zedekiah for his rebellion and perjury. Built - To keep all supplies of men or provisions from entering into the city: and that from thence they might shoot darts, or arrows, or stones.
25:3 The people - For the common people, but only for the great men. Now they eat their own children for want of food, #Lam 4:3|, &c. Jeremiah in this extremity, earnestly persuaded the king to surrender; but his heart was hardened to his destruction.
And the citie was besieged vnto the eleuenth yeere of king Zedekiah.
