Esther2:6
6 Who had been carried away from Jerusalem, with the captivity which had been carried away with Jeconiah king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away.
This may be referred either 1. To Kish, Mordecai's Grand-Father last mentioned; or 2. To Mordecai, who was then carried away either 1. In the Loins of his Parents, in which sense Levi is said to be tithed in Abraham, Heb. 7. and as those persons named Ezra 2. are said to have been carried away by Nebuchadnezzar, Ezra 2. 1. which is not true of the most of them in their own persons, but only as in their Fathers Loins. Or 2. In his own person: and then indeed he was a man of more than ordinary years. But of that see the notes on ch. 1. 1.
