Jeremiah 41:16

Then took Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces that were with him, all the remnant of the people whom he had recovered from Ishmael the son of Nethaniah, from Mizpah, after that he had slain Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, even mighty men of war, and the women, and the children, and the eunuchs, whom he had brought again from Gibeon:

Men of war. Therefore "the men of war," stated in to have been slain by Ishmael, must refer to the military about Gedaliah's person; "the men of war" here, to those not so.

Eunuchs. The kings of Judah had adopted the bad practice of having harems and eunuchs, from the surrounding pagan kingdoms.
