It appears from this and several other passages, that the
sabbatical year had been wholly neglected some centuries
before the captivity; and the author of the second book of
Chronicles (ch. 36:21) assigns this as a reason for the
captivity, "that the land might enjoy her sabbaths." Now, if
we reckon the seventy years' captivity as a punishment for
this neglect, it will follow that the law on this subject had
been disregarded for about 490; years.
