SEV Biblia, Chapter 36:22
¶ Mas al primer año de Ciro rey de los persas, para que se cumpliese la palabra del SEÑOR por boca de Jeremías, el SEÑOR despertó el espíritu de Ciro rey de los persas, el cual hizo pasar pregón por todo su reino, y también por escrito, diciendo:
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Chronicles 36:22
Verse 22. Now in the first year of Cyrus] This and the following verse are supposed to have been written by mistake from the book of Ezra, which begins in the same way. The book of the Chronicles, properly speaking, does close with the twenty-first verse, as then the Babylonish captivity commences, and these two verses speak of the transactions of a period seventy years after. This was in the first year of the reign of Cyrus over the empire of the East which is reckoned to be A.M. 3468. But he was king of Persia from the year 3444 or 3445. See Calmet and Usher.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 22, 23 - God had promised the restoring of the captives, and the rebuilding of Jerusalem, at the end of seventy years; and that time to favour Zion that set time, came at last. Though God's church be cast down, it is not cast off; though his people be corrected, they are not abandoned though thrown into the furnace, they are not lost there, nor left ther any longer than till the dross be separated. Though God contend long he will not contend always. Before we close the books of the Chronicles, which contain a faithful register of events, think what desolation sin introduced into the world, nay, even into the church of God. Let us tremble at what is here recorded, while in the character of some few gracious souls, we discover that the Lord left not himsel without witness. And when we have looked at this faithful portrait of man by nature, let us contrast with it that same nature, when recovere by Almighty grace, through the justifying and soul-adornin righteousness of Christ our Saviour __________________________________________________________________
