What did Nebuchadnezzar take from the Jerusalem temple and where did he put it?
Nebuchadnezzar took part of the vessels of the house of God—gold, silver, and brazen vessels—from the Jerusalem temple and carried them to the land of Shinar, to Babylon, placing them in the house of his god, one of the temples of his gods.
Les explains that in Daniel 1, after Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon besieged Jerusalem, the Lord gave Jehoiakim king of Judah into his hand, along with part of the vessels of the house of God. Those gold, silver, and brazen vessels were carried from Jerusalem back to Babylon and put in one of the temples of his gods. Les suggests he got away with it until the great drunken feast of Belshazzar, when the vessels were brought out for wine drinking and partying; then came the handwriting on the wall. The vessels from that beautiful temple had all been taken to Babylon.
In the third year of the reign of Jehoiakim king of Judah came Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon unto Jerusalem, and besieged it.
