The captivity. There were three captivities: the first in 605 B.C., when Daniel was taken, the second in 597 B.C., when Jehoiachin was made prisoner, and the third in 586 B.C., when Zedekiah was taken and Jerusalem was burned. Mordecai’s ancestors had been taken to Babylon in the second captivity, 118 years previously.
