Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(19) The eunuchs.--See Note on Jeremiah 29:2. They were for the most part, if not always, of alien birth (comp. Isaiah 56:3), as in the case of Ebed-melech (Jeremiah 38:7), who had become proselytes on entering the king's service. The prominence given to them indicates that in Judah as in Assyria, and we may add, in all Oriental monarchies, they held high position in the king's court, and had probably, like the princes of Judah and Jerusalem, enriched themselves by lending money to the poorer Israelites, and then bringing them into bondage. It is significant that here they take precedence of the priests, as in Jeremiah 29:2 of the princes.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewThe officialsשָׂרֵ֨י (śā·rê)Noun - masculine plural constructStrong's 8269: Chieftain, chief, ruler, official, captain, princeof Judahיְהוּדָ֜ה (yə·hū·ḏāh)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 3063: Judah -- 'praised', a son of Jacob, also the southern kingdom, also four Israelitesand Jerusalem,יְרוּשָׁלִַ֗ם (yə·rū·šā·lim)Noun - proper - feminine singularStrong's 3389: Jerusalem -- probably 'foundation of peace', capital city of all Israelthe court officials,הַסָּֽרִסִים֙ (has·sā·ri·sîm)Article | Noun - masculine pluralStrong's 5631: A eunuch, valet, a minister of statethe priests,וְהַכֹּ֣הֲנִ֔ים (wə·hak·kō·hă·nîm)Conjunctive waw, Article | Noun - masculine pluralStrong's 3548: Priestand allוְכֹ֖ל (wə·ḵōl)Conjunctive waw | Noun - masculine singular constructStrong's 3605: The whole, all, any, everythe peopleעַ֣ם (‘am)Noun - masculine singular constructStrong's 5971: A people, a tribe, troops, attendants, a flockof the landהָאָ֑רֶץ (hā·’ā·reṣ)Article | Noun - feminine singularStrong's 776: Earth, landwho passedהָעֹ֣בְרִ֔ים (hā·‘ō·ḇə·rîm)Article | Verb - Qal - Participle - masculine pluralStrong's 5674: To pass over, through, or by, pass onbetweenבֵּ֖ין (bên)PrepositionStrong's 996: An interval, space betweenthe piecesבִּתְרֵ֥י (biṯ·rê)Noun - masculine plural constructStrong's 1335: A part, pieceof the calf,הָעֵֽגֶל׃ (hā·‘ê·ḡel)Article | Noun - masculine singularStrong's 5695: A, calf, one nearly grownJump to PreviousCalf Court Eunuchs Heads Jerusalem Judah Leaders Officers Officials Parts Passed Passing Pieces Priests Princes Rulers Servants Unsexed Walked
