The meaning of Exile in the Bible
(From International Standard Bible Encyclopedia)

ek'-sil, eg'-zil (galah, tsa'ah): Occurs twice only in the King James Version (II Samuel 15:19 (galah, "to remove"); Isaiah 51:14 (tsa'ah, "to be bowed down")). In the Revised Version (British and American) "exile" is substituted for "captivity" (Ezra 8:35 (shebhi), and Ezekiel 12:4 (golah)); "go into exile," for "remove and go" (Ezekiel 12:11); "exiles of Ethiopia" for "Ethiopians captives" (Isaiah 20:4); "He shall let my exiles go free" for "He shall let go my captives" (Isaiah 45:13); "an exile" for "a captive" (Isaiah 49:21). "The exile" is in the King James Version and the Revised Version (British and American) "the captivity" (which see).
