Once again Ethos there are at least 3 Jewish exiles by Babylon..
1. David and his group ...606- This is when Daniel and other members of Judah's elite were taken into captivity (see Daniel 1:1 & 2 Kings 24
2. Jehocian and his group.. 597 BC - Jehoiakim was taken into captivity (see 2 Chron 36:5,6). Three months and ten days later Jehoiachin, along with other members of the royal family, were taken into captivity (see 2 Chron 36:9,10 & 2 Kings 24:15-17).
3. Zedekiah and his group ... 586 BC - After a 3 year siege, Jerusalem was conquered and destroyed, and most of the remaining people were taken (see 2 Kings 25).
You keep refering to ONE SINGULAR EXILE...and showing scripture that ONLY addresses the FiRST 2 GROUPS NOT THE THIRD.
Please give ONE scripture that points to Zedekiah group being brought back after 70 years !!!
Jeremiah 25:9-12 (NIV)
"I will summon all the peoples of the north and my servant Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon," declares the Lord, "and I will bring them against this land and its inhabitants and against all the surrounding nations. I will completely destroy them and make them an object of horror and scorn, and an everlasting ruin. I will banish from them the sounds of joy and gladness, the voices of bride and bridegroom, the sound of millstones and the light of the lamp. This whole country will become a desolate wasteland, and these nations will serve the king of Babylon seventy years . "But when the seventy years are fulfilled, I will punish the king of Babylon and his nation, the land of the Babylonians, for their guilt," declares the Lord, "and will make it desolate forever."
Jeremiah 29:10 (NIV) this letter is addressed to those first 2 groups that were already in exile...Zedekiah was still ruling in Jerusalem.
This is what the Lord says: " When seventy years are completed for Babylon , I will come to you and fulfil my gracious promise to bring you back to this place."
It seems clear from the context in these two segments that the seventy years applies to Babylon itself, not to the period of time that the people of Judah are to spend in Babylon. In chapter 25 it says that the nations would serve Babylon for 70 years. Again in chapter 29, Jeremiah makes the connection to Babylon by saying that 70 years are "for Babylon".
So the 70 years refers to the period of Babylonian Empire. When did this start and finish? As alluded to earlier, Babylon was conquered by Cyrus II of Persia in 539 BC. So this is the finish. When was the start? For our purposes, the start would have to be when the other "nations will serve the king of Babylon" (see excerpt from Jeremiah 25 above). The major world power prior to Babylon was Assyria.
This is what refers to Zedekiah's group Jeremiah 24-NO RESTORATION.
But thus says the Lord : Like the bad figs that are so bad they cannot be eaten, so will I treat Zedekiah the king of Judah, his officials, the remnant of Jerusalem who remain in this land, and those who dwell in the land of Egypt. 9 I will make them a horror [a] to all the kingdoms of the earth, to bea reproach, a byword, a taunt, and a curse in all the places where I shall drive them. 10 And I will send sword, famine, and pestilence upon them, until they shall be utterly destroyed from the land that I gave to them and their fathers.”
So refering to 70 years of exile for Zedekiah's group is nonsense, there were exiled FOREVER !!!
