Three deportations are counted by Nebuchadnezzar’s years: “So in all, 4,600 people were taken away.” This is smaller than the ten thousand of 2 Kings 24:14. Gill and Barnes give two explanations without deciding: a different count of regnal years, or a list of adult men alone.

eighteenth year--when Jerusalem was taken. But in Jer 52:15, and 2Ki 25:8, "the nineteenth year." Probably it was at the end of the eighteenth and the beginning of the nineteenth [LYRA]. eight hundred and thirty and two--The most illustrious persons are meant, who no doubt were carried away first, at the end of the eighteenth year.
