Jeremia 52:19 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 52:19

And the basins
Or "bowls"; these are omitted, ( 2 Kings 25:15 ) ; they were of gold, ( 1 Kings 7:50 ) ; and the firepans;
or "censers"; these were those of gold, which belonged to the golden altar, ( 1 Kings 7:50 ) ; and the bowls;
or "basins"; there were a hundred of them made of gold, ( 2 Chronicles 4:8 ) ; and the cauldrons;
or "pots"; these are not mentioned, ( 2 Kings 25:15 ) ; what they should be, that were either of gold or silver, cannot be said: and the candlesticks;
of which there were ten in number, made of pure gold, five on the right side, and five on the left, before the oracle, ( 1 Kings 7:49 ) ; and the spoons;
which were also of gold, ( 1 Kings 7:50 ) ; and the cups:
the word is rendered "bowls", to cover withal, ( Exodus 25:29 ) ; it was some kind of instrument or vessel used about the shewbread table, made of pure gold; according to Jarchi, these were little golden forks, upon which they placed the shewbread, to keep it from moulding; according to the Misna ^F3, there were four of them: [that] which [was] of gold [in] gold, and [that] which [was] of silver
[in] silver, took the captain of the guard away;
that is, everything that was of gold or silver he took away; the golden things by themselves, and the silver things by themselves, as some think.

Jeremia 52:19 In-Context

17 Aber die ehernen Säulen am Hause des HERR und das Gestühl und das eherne Meer am Hause des HERRN zerbrachen die Chaldäer und führten all das Erz davon gen Babel.

18 Und die Kessel, Schaufeln, Messer, Becken, Kellen und alle ehernen Gefäße, die man im Gottesdienst pflegte zu brauchen, nahmen sie weg.

19 Dazu nahm der Hauptmann, was golden und silbern war an Bechern, Räuchtöpfen, Becken, Kesseln, Leuchtern, Löffeln und Schalen.

20 Die zwei Säulen, das Meer, die Zwölf ehernen Rinder darunter und die Gestühle, welche der König Salomo hatte lassen machen zum Hause des HERRN, alles dieses Gerätes aus Erz war unermeßlich viel.

21 Der zwei Säulen aber war eine jegliche achtzehn Ellen hoch, und eine Schnur, zwölf Ellen lang, reichte um sie her, und war eine jegliche vier Finger dick und inwendig hohl;
