Listen to Geremia 52:7
7 ed essendo i Caldei penetrati dentro alla città, tutta la gente di guerra se ne fuggì, e uscì di notte della città, per la via della porta d’infra le due mura, ch’era volta verso l’orto del re, essendo i Caldei sopra la città d’ogn’intorno; e se ne andavano traendo verso il deserto.

Geremia 52:7 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 52:7

Then the city was broken up
Either its gates were broke open, some one or other of them; or a breach was made in the walls of it, through which the Chaldean army entered: and all the men of war fled;
the soldiers, with their officers, not being able to stand before the army of the king of Babylon: and went forth out of the city by night;
at which time, very probably, the attack was made, and the gates of the city forced open, or the walls broke down; Josephus F16 says it was taken in the middle of the night: by the way of the gate between the two walls, which [was] by the king's
garden; (See Gill on Jeremiah 39:4); now the Chaldeans [were] by the city round about;
as part of their army entered into it, the other part surrounded it; or, however, were placed at the gates and avenues all around, that none might escape: and they went by the way of the plain;
that is, the men of war or soldiers that fled, together with King Zedekiah, his family and princes; see ( Jeremiah 39:4 ) .

Geremia 52:7 In-Context

5 E la città fu assediata infino all’anno undecimo del re Sedechia.
6 Nel nono giorno del quarto mese, essendo la fame grave nella città, talchè non vi era più pane per lo popolo del paese;
7 ed essendo i Caldei penetrati dentro alla città, tutta la gente di guerra se ne fuggì, e uscì di notte della città, per la via della porta d’infra le due mura, ch’era volta verso l’orto del re, essendo i Caldei sopra la città d’ogn’intorno; e se ne andavano traendo verso il deserto.
8 Ma l’esercito de’ Caldei perseguitò il re, e raggiunse Sedechia nelle campagne di Gerico; e tutto il suo esercito si disperse d’appresso a lui.
9 Ed i Caldei presero il re, e lo menarono al re di Babilonia, in Ribla, nel paese di Hamat; ed egli gli pronunziò la sua sentenza.
