SEV Biblia, Chapter 25:18

Asimismo tomó el capitán de los de la guardia a Seraías primer sacerdote, y a Sofonías segundo sacerdote, y tres guardas de la puerta;

Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 25:18

Verse 18. Seraiah the
chief priest-Zephaniah] The person who is here called the second priest was what the Jews call sagan, a sort of deputy, who performed the functions of the high priest when he was prevented by any infirmity from attending the temple service. See on 2 Kings xxiii. 4.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 18-21. And the
captain of the guard took Seraiah the chief priest, and Zephaniah the second priest , etc.] The sagan, or deputy priest, who officiated for the high priest, when by any means he was rendered unfit and incapable; so Joseph, the son of Ellem, as Josephus relates, officiated for Matthias, when defiled with a nocturnal pollution; and seven days before the day of atonement they always substituted one under the high priest, lest anything of this kind should happen to him f315 . From hence, to the end of ( 2 Kings 25:21) the account is the same as in ( Jeremiah 52:25-27), only here in ( 2 Kings 25:19) it is said, that five men that were in the king’s presence were taken, there seven men; to account for which, (see Gill on “ Jeremiah 52:25”).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 8-21 - The city and
temple were burnt, and, it is probable, the ark in it. By this, God showed how little he cares for the outward pomp of his worship, when the life and power of religion are neglected. The wall of Jerusalem were thrown down, and the people carried captive to Babylon. The vessels of the temple were carried away. When the thing signified were sinned away, what should the signs stand there for? It was righteous with God to deprive those of the benefit of his worship who had preferred false worships before it; those that would have man altars, now shall have none. As the Lord spared not the angels tha sinned, as he doomed the whole race of fallen men to the grave, and all unbelievers to hell, and as he spared not his own Son, but delivere him up for us all, we need not wonder at any miseries he may bring upo guilty nations, churches, or persons.
