Jeremiah foretells his doom. King Jeconiah The name "Jeconiah" is derived from the Hebrew "Yekonyah," meaning "Yahweh will establish." Jeconiah, also known as Jehoiachin, was the king of Judah who reigned for a brief period before being taken into Babylonian captivity. His reign and subsequent exile mark a significant turning point in Judah's history, symbolizing the beginning of the Babylonian Exile. This event fulfilled the prophecies of Jeremiah, who warned of the consequences of the nation's disobedience to God. Jeconiah's exile serves as a reminder of God's sovereignty and the fulfillment of His word, even in judgment. The queen mother The court officials The princes of Judah and Jerusalem The craftsmen, and the metalsmiths Had gone into exile from Jerusalem The carpenters, and the smiths.--See Note on Jeremiah 24:1. Among the exiles thus referred to as "princes" we have to think of Daniel, and those who are best known to us by their Babylonian names as Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego (Daniel 1:6-7). The conduct, we may well believe, was in accordance with Jeremiah's teaching. Verse 2. - The queen; rather, the queen, mother (see on Jeremiah 13:18) The eunuchs, the princes of Judah and Jerusalem. A marginal gloss appears to have intruded itself into the text, for there is no other passage in which the "eunuchs," or (as the word may equally well be rendered, with the margin), "chamberlains," are called "princes of Judah."Parallel Commentaries ...
