Esdras 2:64 Meaning and Commentary

Ezra 2:64

The whole congregation together was forty and two thousand
three hundred [and] threescore.
] But the sums before given make no more, with Zerubbabel, and the ten principal men, than 29,829, so that there are more than 12,000 wanting; wherefore, in answer to the question, where are the 12,000? the Jews say in their chronology ^F1 these are they of the other tribes, who set up the altar on its bases, and gave money to the masons ( Ezra 3:1 Ezra 3:3 Ezra 3:7 ) , this was a much larger number than were carried captive; see ( 2 Kings 24:14 2 Kings 24:15 ) ( Jeremiah 52:28 Jeremiah 52:29 Jeremiah 52:30 ) , but not to be compared with the number that came out of Egypt, ( Exodus 12:37 ) . An Arabic writer ^F2 makes them 50,000, but wrongly.
