The nation was conquered. Zedekiah was taken prisoner, and his sons were slain before his eyes. The king was led away from

Jerusalem a captive, his eyes were put out, and after arriving in Babylon he perished miserably. The beautiful temple that for more than four centuries had crowned the summit of Mount Zion was not spared by the Chaldeans. They burnt the house of God, and brake down the wall of Jerusalem, and burnt all the palaces thereof with fire, and destroyed all the goodly vessels thereof. 2 Chronicles 36:19
Of Jeremiah himself it is recorded: Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon gave charge concerning Jeremiah to Nebuchadnezzar-adan the captain of the guard, saying, Take him, and look well to him, and do him no harm; but do unto him even as he shall say unto thee....and his constant prayer was, Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the Lord.
Jeremiah 39:11, 12/Lamentations 3:40
