God's Sovereignty in Judgment
The verse states that 'Jehovah carried away Judah... by the hand of Nebuchadnezzar.' Commentators emphasize this wording to show that the exile was not a random political event but an act of God's sovereign judgment. God used a foreign king as His instrument to discipline His people, a theme consistent with the message of Israel's prophets.
