Expanded Bible

¹³ Nebuzaradan set fire to the ·Temple [^Lhouse] of the Lord, the ·palace [^Lhouse of the king], and all the houses of Jerusalem; every ·important building [^Lgreat/big house] was burned. ¹⁴ The whole ·Babylonian [^LChaldean] army, led by the commander of the king’s special guards, ·broke down [demolished] all the walls around Jerusalem. ¹⁵ Nebuzaradan, the commander of the king’s special guards, took captive some of the poorest people, those who ·were left [remained] in Jerusalem, those who had ·surrendered [deserted; defected] to the king of Babylon, and the ·skilled craftsmen [artisans] who were left in Jerusalem.
