In586 B.C. Nebuzaradan, the captain of Nebuchadnezzar"s bodyguard, came to Jerusalem and burned down the temple, the royal palace, and every sizable building. Evidently Nebuzaradan arrived in Jerusalem on the seventh of the month ( 2 Kings 25:8) and began burning the city on the tenth. The soldiers with Nebuzaradan also broke down the wall of the city to make it indefensible (cf. Jeremiah 1:10; Jeremiah 18:7; Jeremiah 31:28). [source][source][source]
