Commentary on 2 Kings 25:10 (Summary)

2 Rois 25:10 (NEG79)

10 Toute l'armée des Chaldéens, qui était avec le chef des gardes, démolit les murailles formant l'enceinte de Jérusalem.

The taking down of the walls of Jerusalem is telling when you place it next to Psalm 122:7 (see also Lamentations 2:8 and Lamentations 2:18). One of the first things that was taken on by the Judeans after the return from exile was the rebuilding of the walls of Jerusalem (Nehemiah 4:1 – 7:73). For the importance and the meaning of the walls of Jerusalem, see also Isaiah 60:10 and Isaiah 60:18.
