But it came to pass, when Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon came up into the land, that we said, Come, and let us go to Jerusalem for fear of the army of the Chaldeans, and for fear of the army of the Syrians: so we dwell at Jerusalem.
Pero cuando Nabucodonosor rey de Babilonia invadió nuestra tierra, nos dijimos unos a otros: 'Vengan, vayamos a Jerusalén porque tenemos miedo del ejército babilónico y del ejército sirio.' Por eso ahora estamos viviendo en Jerusalén.
Los recabitas se refugiaron en Jerusalén para escapar de los ejércitos invasores de Babilonia y Siria.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This is part of the Rechabites' explanation to Jeremiah around 605-586 BC during Babylon's invasion of Judah. The Rechabites were a nomadic clan who had sworn centuries earlier to never live in houses, drink wine, or plant crops, but the military crisis forced them to seek refuge in Jerusalem's walls. The Syrian army mentioned likely refers to Aramean forces who were also active in the region during this turbulent period.
