JND Translation Notes

+
a
In those days conquerors transported conquered nations to distant seats, and replaced them by others, that national feeling might not subsist, but dependence be complete. "Carrying away" is feeble for this, but I know no other word.

W. Kelly Translation

+
11
and Josias begat Jechonias and his brethren, at the time ofa the carrying away of Babylon.

WK Translation Notes

+
a
Or "close upon the carrying away to Babylon." The word (epi) expresses the time in the course of which a thing happened. "They were carried away," "they were brought," might convey more than the Greek to an English reader. It is better, therefore, to render verses 11 and 12 uniformly with verse 17, in the English Bible.
