Jeremiah 29:2 KJV
(After that Jeconiah the king, and the queen, and the eunuchs, the
princes of Judah and Jerusalem , and the carpenters, and the smiths, were
departed from Jerusalem
Nebuchadnezzar carried every one of value back with
him to Babylon .
- He
took the king and queen
- He
took the princes of
He also took
- The
eunuchs
- The
carpenters and
- The
smiths
Society tends to class people as upper and lower.
Those who are "royalty," wealthy or educated are thought of as a the better class of people, not only in what they possess but also in character and
intrinsic value.
God, who is no respecter of persons, sees no such
class distinction and places, in the very same sentence, the capture of the
king and the commoner. We are, whatever class we find ourselves, of equal value
in the sight of God. We ought therefore to view each individual of that same
value in our own sight.
