**וּבִשְׁנַת שְׁתַּיִם לְמַלְכוּת נְבוּכַדְנֶצַּר.** אִי אֶפְשָׁר לוֹמַר כֵּן, אֶלָּא **בִּשְׁנַת שְׁתַּיִם** לְחֻרְבַּן הַבַּיִת; כָּךְ שְׁנוּיָה בְּסֵדֶר עוֹלָם (פרק כח). וּקְרָאוֹ **לְמַלְכוּת נְבוּכַדְנֶצַּר**, עַל שֶׁהֶרְאָה זְדוֹנוֹ לִכָּנֵס לְתוֹךְ דְּבִיר מַלְכּוֹ שֶׁל עוֹלָם:

**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**
**Now in the second year of Nebuchadnezzar’s reign** It is impossible to say this, except that [it happened] in the second year after the destruction of the Temple. So it is taught in Seder Olam (ch. 28), and Scripture called it “of Nebuchadnezzar’s reign,” because he demonstrated his insolence by entering the Inner Sanctum of the Sovereign of the Universe.

**and his spirit was troubled** Heb. וַתִּתְפָּעֶם רוּחוֹ. Concerning Pharaoh it says (Gen. 41:8): וַתִּפָּעֶם רוּחוֹ, for only the interpretation of the dream was hidden from him, but here, since the dream too was hidden from him, the expression is doubled: וַתִּתְפָּעֶם, an expression of pulsating and beating.

**The Judaica Press complete Tanach with Rashi, translated by A. J. Rosenberg:**
**and ordered to destroy** Aram. וַאֲמַר לְהוֹבָדָה. About this “vav” of וַאֲמַר, Menahem and Dunash disputed. Menahem (p. 46) forced himself to make the “beth” of בְּנַס, a radical and did not interpret בְּנַס וּקְצַף as nouns, but as an expression of a verb: was greatly wroth and angry and ordered to destroy. The “vav” in וַאֲמַר forced him to interpret it this way. Dunash (p. 9) says that it is impossible for the “beth” to be a radical, but it is a noun, and he interpreted it in this manner: with great wrath and anger he ordered to destroy, and the “vav” there is superfluous, like the “vav” of (Ps. 76:7): “chariot (וְרֶכֶב) and horse.” But I say that the “vav” is not forced to be superfluous, but so is its interpretation: מַלְכָּא בְּנַס וּקְצַף שַּׂגִּיא, the king was in great wrath and anger, and he ordered in his wrath to destroy them. Accordingly, this is an elliptical verse.
