Jeremiah 43:6

Euen men, and women, and children, and the kings daughters, and euery person that Nebuzaradan the captaine of the guard had left with Gedaliah the sonne of Ahikam, the sonne of Shaphan, and Ieremiah the Prophet, and Baruch the sonne of Neriah. Jeremiah 43:6 (KJV)

The passage enumerates men, women, children, the king’s daughters, and the poor of the land, all of whom were left under the care of Nebuzar‑adan, the captain of the guard. Nebuzar‑adan is identified as the official who remained with Gedaliah son of Ahikam son of Shaphan, together with the prophet Jeremiah and Baruch son of Neriah. This roster also includes “every person” associated with the guard’s leadership, indicating a broad spectrum of the community that survived the turmoil.

The list reflects a cross‑section of society: the ordinary families, the royal daughters, and those described as the poor. By naming both the king’s daughters and the poor, the text underscores that the aftermath affected all layers of the population, from the highest to the most vulnerable. The inclusion of the prophet Jeremiah and his scribe Baruch highlights the presence of spiritual leadership alongside civil authority.

It is noteworthy that this exact phrasing does not appear as a direct quotation in the King James Version, even though the individuals named are mentioned in various biblical passages. The wording therefore functions as a summary compilation rather than a verbatim scriptural citation. Nonetheless, the elements of the list are faithful to the biblical record, preserving the essential characters and groups involved.

In summary, the verse presents a concise inventory of those who remained after the devastation: men, women, children, the king’s daughters, the poor, the guard’s captain Nebuzar‑adan, the governor Gedaliah, the prophet Jeremiah, and his companion Baruch. Their collective presence illustrates the continuity of community and leadership amid crisis.
