Jeremiah 27:20 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 27:20

Which Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon took not
For he seems only to have taken the vessels of gold, and left the vessels of brass, as the above were; see ( 2 Kings 24:13 ) ; when he carried away captive Jeconiah, the son of Jehoiakim, king of
Judah, from Jerusalem to Babylon, and all the nobles of Judah and
Jerusalem;
of which see ( 2 Kings 24:12-16 ) .

Jeremiah 27:20 In-Context

18 If they are real prophets and have a Message from God, let them come to God-of-the-Angel-Armies in prayer so that the furnishings that are still left in God's Temple, the king's palace, and Jerusalem aren't also lost to Babylon.
19 That's because God-of-the-Angel-Armies has already spoken about the Temple furnishings that remain - the pillars, the great bronze basin, the stands, and all the other bowls and chalices
20 that Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon didn't take when he took Jehoiachin son of Jehoiakim off to Babylonian exile along with all the leaders of Judah and Jerusalem.
21 He said that the furnishings left behind in the Temple of God and in the royal palace and in Jerusalem
22 will be taken off to Babylon and stay there until, in God's words, 'I take the matter up again and bring them back where they belong.'"
