John Gill's Exposition of the Whole Bible

Jeremiah 52:10

And the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah before his eyes,.... Or, however, ordered them to be slain;

Jeremiah 39:6;

he slew also all the princes of Judah in Riblah; who, together with the king's sons, were taken with him; or, however, were taken in Jerusalem, and brought to Riblah; which of them is not certain, very probably the former.
