Matthew Poole and continuators on Daniel 1:2

2 And the LORD gave Jehojakim king of Judah into his hand, with part of the vessels of the house of God , which he carried into the land of Shinar to the house of his god , and he brought the vessels into the treasure-house of his god.

In this expedition Nebuchadnezzar carried away some of the vessels of the Temple, and some Captives, among whom was Daniel and his Friends. These Vessels he carried into the house of his God.

Which God was Baal or Bel, and Nebo, Isa. 46.1. which words they put into the names of their Kings, and Favourites, of which more afterward.

These Vessels as spoils he put in the house of his God for his Honour, because he thought, he had gotten his victory by the help of his Idol God, 1 Sam. 31.9, 10. as the Philistins did, Iudg. 16.23, 24. when as the Text saith the Lord gave all into his hand, ver. 2. The executioners of Gods wrath upon Gods sinful people have other thoughts then God hath about that, Isa. 10.5. to ver. 16.
