2 Chronicles 36:18 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 36:18

And all the vessels of the house of God, great and small
All that were left; for some had been carried away in both the reigns preceding:

and the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the
king and of his princes;
which became the spoil and booty of the soldiers:

all these he brought to Babylon;
the vessels were laid up there, and restored when Cyrus took it; but the treasures were no doubt in part taken for his own use, and the rest divided in the army.
