The wall was breached in the fourth month (= early July; 39:2 ) and Nebuzaradan came and burned the palace, the temple, and many of the houses and tore down the wall in the fifth month (= early August; 52:12 ). That would have left time between the fifth month and the seventh month (October) to gather in the harvest of grapes, dates and figs, and olives ( 40:12 ). However, many commentators feel that too much activity takes place in too short a time for this to have been in the same year and posit that it happened the following year or even five years later when a further deportation took place, possibly in retaliation for the murder of Gedaliah and the Babylonian garrison at Mizpah ( 52:30 ). The assassination of Gedaliah had momentous consequences and was commemorated in one of the post exilic fast days lamenting the fall of Jerusalem ( Zech 8:19 ).","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Jeremiah%2041%3A1/1"}

This can scarcely refer to all the Judeans who had rallied around Gedaliah at Mizpah because v. 10 later speaks of Ishmael carrying off “the rest of the people who were at Mizpah.” Probably what is meant is “all the Judeans and Babylonian soldiers” that were also at the meal. It is possible that this meal was intended to seal a covenant between Gedaliah and Ishmael of Ishmael’s allegiance to Gedaliah and his Babylonian overlords (cf. Gen 26:30-31; 31:53-54 ; Exod 24:11 ). In any case, this act of treachery and deceit was an extreme violation of the customs of hospitality practiced in the ancient Near East.","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Jeremiah%2041%3A3/1"}

When Israel was destroyed in 722 b.c. , some of the Israelites had been left behind and some of the Judeans had taken up residence in these northern cities. People residing there had participated in the reforms of Hezekiah ( 2 Chr 30:11 ) and Josiah ( 2 Chr 34:9 ) and were evidently still faithfully following the Jewish calendar. They would have been on their way to Jerusalem to celebrate the Jewish New Year and the Feast of Tabernacles ( Lev 23:34 ). map For the location of Samaria see Map2-B1 ; Map4-D3 ; Map5-E2 ; Map6-A4 ; Map7-C1 .","source_note_position":1,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Jeremiah%2041%3A5/1"}

Many commentators relate the second part of the name to the name of the son of David’s benefactor when he fled from Absalom ( 2 Sam 19:38-39 ) and see this as a reference to an estate that David assigned this son as reward for his father’s largess. Gibeon was about six miles northwest of Jerusalem and Benjamin is approximately the same distance southwest of it. Hence, the people mentioned here had not traveled all that far.","source_note_position":2,"source_url":"https://netbible.org/resource/netNote/Jeremiah%2041%3A17/2"}
