John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

2 Chronicles 36:17

Chaldees — Abraham was called out of Ur of the Chaldees, when God took him into covenant with himself. And now his degenerate seed are carried into that country again, to signify that they had forfeited all that kindness wherewith they had been loved for their father's sake, and the benefit of the covenant into which he was called.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

2 Chronicles 36:17

Therefore he brought upon them the king of the Chaldees, who slew their young men with the sword (h) in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion upon young man or maiden, old man, or him that stooped for age: he (i) gave [them] all into his hand.

(h) Where they fled, thinking to have been saved for the holiness of it.

(i) Which is not because God approves him, who yet is the minister of his justice, but because God would by his just judgment punish this people: for this king was led with ambition and vain glory, to which were joined fury and cruelty: therefore his work was condemnable, even though it was just and holy on God's part, who used this wicked instrument to declare his justice.
