2 Kings 25:19
Out of the city - This clause shows that the five persons mentioned in II Kings 25:18 were taken out of the temple.
Five men - Or, "seven men," according to Jeremiah 52:25. It is impossible to say which of the two numbers is correct.
Of them that were in the king' s presence - See the margin. A mode of speech arising from the custom of Eastern rulers to withdraw themselves as much as possible from the view of their subjects.
