“And them that had escaped from the sword [Nebuchadnezzar] carried away to Babylon, where they were servants to him and his sons until the reign of the kingdom of Persia: to fulfill the Word of the LORD by the mouth of
Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed her Sabbaths, for as long as she lay desolate she kept Sabbath, to fulfill
seventy-years.”

They were in exile one year for each Sabbatical year missed!

sent from Jerusalem unto the elders who were carried away captives,
and to the priests, and to the prophets, and to all the people
whom Nebuchadnezzar had carried away captive from Jerusalem to
Babylon.”
Jeremiah 29:1
“For thus saith the LORD, that after seventy-years be
accomplished at Babylon, I will visit you, and perform my good
word toward you, in causing you to return to this place.”

The word “WEEKS” here is a translation of the Hebrew word
SHIVI’IM
