And all the vessels of the house of God, great and small,.... All that were left; for some had been carried away in both the reigns preceding: and the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king and of his princes; which became the spoil and booty of the soldiers: all these he brought to Babylon; the vessels were laid up there, and restored when Cyrus took it; but the treasures were no doubt in part taken for his own use, and the rest divided in the army.

slew their young men with the sword

on 2 Chronicles 36:17-19

The Chaldean sword shows the compassion of verse fifteen inverted: it has no compassion upon young man or maiden, old man, or him that stooped for age, striking in the house of their own sanctuary. Chronicles names in one list what Kings tells as narrative: the house of God burnt, the wall of Jerusalem broken down, the palaces burnt with fire, and the goodly vessels that remained destroyed. Clarke calls the temple the most costly building ever raised by human hands, and this chapter is where it ends.
