“And he hath confirmed his words, which he spake against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil: for under the whole heaven hath not been done as hath been done upon Jerusalem.”
"He has confirmed his words, which he spoke against us and against our rulers, by bringing upon us a great calamity; for under the whole heaven there has not been done the like of what has been done against Jerusalem"—acknowledging that the exile's severity exceeds normal military defeat, suggesting divine orchestration beyond natural causes. The comparison to nothing done "under the whole heaven" indicates the catastrophe's unique magnitude. This acknowledgment underscores that only divine judgment could produce such comprehensive destruction.
