John Trapp on Jeremiah 39:3

Ver. 3. In the middle gate] Called the ſecond gate, Zeph. 2.10. See chap. 1.15. Jeremy lived to ſee ſundry of his propheſies fulfilled. Jeruſalem was taken in or about the fortieth year of his propheſying: as it was afterwards by the Romans, in or about the fortieth year after our Saviours Aſcenſion.

Even Nergal, Sharezar, Shamgar-Nebo] Here we have a liſt of the Babylonian Princes, who firſt brake into the City. Their names are harſh and barbarous (ſuch as are now to our eares the Turkiſh Baſhaws, Beglerbegs, Sanzacks, &c.) but good enough for ſuch to hear, as would not yeeld to the ſweet name and counſel of a gracious God. Thoſe names that have Sar or Rab in them, are deemed to be names of office; as Sarezer Maſter of the treaſures, Rabinag Maſter of the Magicians, &c.
