Jeremias 52:24 Meaning and Commentary

Jeremiah 52:24

And the captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest,
&c.] That is, out of the temple, where he was ministering, or fled for safety; this is supposed to be the father of Ezra, ( 1 Chronicles 6:14 ) ( Ezra 7:1 ) ; and Zephaniah the second priest:
or deputy priest: the "sagan" of the priests, as the Targum calls him, who was deputed to minister for the high priest, in case anything happened which hindered him from officiating; such an one there always was in later times on the day of atonement, as appears from the Misna F6; this man is thought to be the same with Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest, ( Jeremiah 21:1 ) ( 29:25 ) ; and the three keepers of the door;
that is, of the temple. The Targum calls them three "amarcalin"; who had, as Jarchi says, the keys of the court committed to them. The number seems better to agree with the "gizbarim" or treasurers; of whom, it is said, they never appoint less than three treasurers, and seven "amarcalin" F7.

Jeremias 52:24 In-Context

22 O capitel de bronze no alto de uma coluna tinha dois metros e vinte e cinco centímetros de altura e era ornamentado com uma peça entrelaçada e romãs de bronze em volta, tudo de bronze. A outra coluna, com suas romãs, era igual.
23 Havia noventa e seis romãs nos lados; o número total de romãs acima da peça entrelaçada ao redor era de cem.
24 O comandante da guarda tomou como prisioneiros o sumo sacerdote Seraías, o sacerdote adjunto Sofonias e os três guardas das portas.
25 Dos que ainda estavam na cidade, tomou o oficial encarregado dos homens de combate e sete conselheiros reais. Também tomou o secretário, que era o oficial maior encarregado do alistamento do povo da terra, e sessenta de seus homens que foram encontrados na cidade.
26 O comandante Nebuzaradã tomou todos eles e os levou ao rei da Babilônia em Ribla.
