(15) Certain of the poor of the people.--Omitted in 2Kings 25:11, and probably inserted here by an error of transcription, as the next verse states that the "poor of the land" were left in their own country.

The rest of the multitude.--Better, perhaps, the remnant of the work-people, as in Proverbs 8:30, where many commentators so render the word, "I was with him as a worker" and Song Song of Solomon 7:1. The versions, however, agree in giving "multitude."
