Commentary
4 notes on this verseBut most of the temple-prey that was now seized was of brass, which, being of less value, was carried off last. When the gold was gone, the brass soon went after it, because the people repented not, according to Jeremiah's prediction, ch. xxvii.
This site's exposition
the Chaldeans broke up the bronze pillars
on Jeremiah 52:17-23
The Chaldeans break up “the bronze pillars and stands and the bronze Sea”, with the twelve bulls “that King Solomon had made.” The pillars, named Jachin and Boaz in 1 Kings 7:21, are measured again: “eighteen cubits tall.” The list runs as an inventory of bronze, gold, and silver.

of gold in gold--implying that the articles were of solid gold and silver respectively, not of a different metal inside, or alloyed [GROTIUS]. Whole: not breaking them as was done to the "brass" (Jer 52:17).
