      This prince, so famous in the writings of the prophets, was
      the son of Nabopollasar king of Babylon.

       * Jer 15:1-4 Mic 2:10
    - for the sins.
       * 2Ki 21:2-11 Ex 20:5

    VERSE 6 
     - A.M. 3405.  B.C. 599.  slept
      As Jehoiakim was "buried with the burial of an ass," by being
      "drawn and cast forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem," without
      internment, the expression "slept with his fathers," can only
      mean that the died, or slept the sleep of death.  In the East,
      a body exposed during the night would be a prey to wild
      animals; if any of it were left till the morning, the
      carnivorous birds would devour it.
    
       * 2Ch 36:6,8 Jer 22:18,19; 36:30
    - Jehoiachin.
      As this man reigned only three months, and was a mere vassal
      of the king of Babylon, his reign is scarcely reckoned; and
      therefore Jeremiah (ch. 30 31:30) says of Jehoiakim, "he shall
      have none to sit upon the throne of David."

     - the king.

    - Jeconiah.
       * Jer 22:24,28; 37:1
    - Coniah.
       * Mt 1:11,12
    - Jechonias.
    - eighteen years.
      In the parallel place, he is said to be only eight years old;
      but this must be a mistake, for we find that having reigned
      only three months, he was carried captive to Babylon, and
      there had wives; and had he been of such a tender age, it
      could scarcely have been said that, as a king, "he did that
      which was evil in the sight of the Lord."
    
       * 2Ch 36:9
    
    
    VERSE 9

      "Nebuchadnezzar's eighth year."
    
       * Jer 25:1; 52:28
    
    
    VERSE 13 
     - he carried.
       * 2Ki 20:17 Isa 39:6 Jer 20:5
    - and cut.
       * 2Ki 25:13-15 Ezr 1:7-11 Jer 27:16-21; 28:3,4,6 Da 5:2,3

      Jehoiachin.
    
       * 1Ch 3:15,16 2Ch 36:10
    - changed.
      The change of name was to shew Nebuchadnezzar's supremacy, and
      that Zedekiah was only his vassal or viceroy.  The custom of
      changing names, we are assured by travellers, still exists in
      the East.
