15 Then Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carried away into exile some of the poorest of the people , the rest of the people who were left in the city , the deserters who had deserted to the king of Babylon and the rest of the artisans .
The Chaldean army made woful havoc. But nothing is so particularly related here, as the carrying away of the articles in the temple. The remembrance of their beauty and value shows us the more the evil of sin.
