This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Who had been carried away: this may be referred either,
1. To Kish, Mordecai’s grandfather last mentioned; or,
2. To Mordecai, who was then carried away, either,
1. In the loins of his parents, in which sense Levi is said to be tithed in Abraham, Heb 7; and as those persons named Ezr 2 are said to have been carried away by Nebuchadnezzar, Ezr_2:1, which is not true of the most of them in their own persons, but only as in their fathers’ loins. Or,
2. In his own person; and then indeed he was a man of more than ordinary years. But of that See Poole "Est_1:1".
