Jeremiah 52:28

This is the people whom Nebuchadnezzar carried away captive in the seventh year ,.... That is, of his reign: in 2 Kings 24:12 ; it is said to be in the eighth year of his reign; it being at the latter end of the seventh, and the beginning of the eighth, as Kimchi observes; this was the captivity of Jeconiah: the number of the captives then were

three thousand Jews, and three and twenty ; but in 2 Kings 24:14 ; they are said to be ten thousand; which may be reconciled thus, there were three thousand twenty and three of the tribe of Judah, here called Jews; and the rest were of the tribe of Benjamin, and of the ten tribes that were mixed among them; see 2 Kings 24:16 .
