Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 2 Kings 24:8-17

G. Jehoiachin’s Evil Reign 24:8-17Jehoiakim’s son Jehoiachin, whose other names were Jeconiah and Coniah, succeeded him on the throne but only reigned for three months (598-597 B.C.). When Nebuchadnezzar’s troops were besieging Jerusalem, the Babylonian king personally visited Judah’s capital, and Jehoiachin surrendered to him (2 Kings 24:12). The invasion fulfilled the Lord’s warning to Solomon about apostasy in 1 Kings 9:6-9. A large deportation of Judah’s population followed in 597 B.C. None... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Kings 24:1-20

Jehoiachin and NebuchadnezzarThis chapter recounts the reigns of Jehoiakim and Jehoiachin, the invasion of Judah by Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon (who carried into captivity Jehoiachin and numbers of the people), and the reign of Zedekiah.1. Nebuchadnezzar] called more accurately in Jeremiah 25:9 and elsewhere ’Nebuchadrezzar.’ He was the son of the Nabopolassar who conquered Nineveh (see on 2 Kings 23:29), and, as his father’s general, defeated the Egyptians in 605 at Carchemish on the... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - 2 Kings 24:14

(14) All Jerusalem.—Limited by what follows, and meaning the most important part of the population.The princes—i.e., the nobles, e.g., the grandees of the court, some of the priests (Ezekiel 1:1), and the heads of the clans.The mighty men of valour.—This is probably right. Thenius and Bähr prefer to understand the men of property and the artisans, as in 2 Kings 15:20.All the craftsmen and smiths.—The former were workers in wood, stone, and metal, i.e., carpenters, masons, and smiths. (Comp.... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - 2 Kings 24:15

(15) And he carried away.—The form of the verb is different from that in 2 Kings 24:14. We might render: “Yea, he carried away;” for 2 Kings 24:15-16 simply give the particulars of what was stated generally in 2 Kings 24:14. In the present verse the “princes” are defined.He carried away Jehoiachin to Babylon, and the king’s mother.—Fulfilment of Jeremiah 22:24-27.The mighty of the land.—So the Targum, “the magnates of the land.” All who could do so, must have taken refuge in Jerusalem at the... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Kings 24:1-20

Pharaoh was not able to maintain his dominance over Judah, however, not that Judah was able to break it, but because Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon displaced Pharaoh and took his place in making Jehoiakim his servant (v.24). For three years Jehoiakim remained subject to Nebuchadnezzar, then rebelled (v.1), not because of faith in the living God, but because he would not bow to the governmental results of his sin. Since Jehoiakim decided that he would not bow to the governmental results of... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 24:1-20

THE BABYLONIAN CAPTIVITY THE LAST OF THE KINGS (2 Kings 24:0 ) In the previous lesson we left Judah tributary to Egypt, which had been victorious at Megiddo. This lasted five years, when Babylon, now master of her old-time enemy Assyria, and eager to cross swords with Egypt for world-supremacy, came up against her, and compelled allegiance. After three years Jehoiakim revolted (2 Kings 24:1 ), and for the remainder of his reign was harassed by bands of enemies (2 Kings 24:2 ) perhaps... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - 2 Kings 24:1-20

2 Kings 24:0 1. In his days [605 b.c.] Nebuchadnezzar king [at this time Crown Prince] of Babylon came up, and Jehoiakim became his servant three years: then he turned and rebelled against him. [Nebuchadnezzar, son of Nabopolassar, and second monarch of the Babylonian Empire, ascended the throne 604 b.c., and reigned forty-three years, dying 561 b.c.
