Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 22:28
Jeremiah 22:28. Is this man Coniah a despised broken idol?— Potsherd? Houbigant, who renders the latter clause, that they have cast out him and his seed into a land, &c. "Would any one have thought that this man, who was invested with royal dignity, should be rendered no better than a broken image of royalty, a mere potsherd, utterly contemptible and useless?" read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Jeremiah 22:30
Jeremiah 22:30. Write ye this man childless—— I cannot agree with the generality of commentators, who suppose that God hereby declares it as a thing certain, and as it were orders it to be inserted among the public acts of his government, that Jeconiah should die absolutely childless. Other parts of Scripture positively assert him to have had children, 1 Chronicles 3:17-18. Matthew 1:12. And both Jer 22:28 and the subsequent part of this verse imply that he either had, or should have seed. But... read more

29, 30. O earth! earth! earth!—Jeconiah was not actually without offspring (compare :-, "his seed"; 1 Chronicles 3:17; 1 Chronicles 3:18; Matthew 1:12), but he was to be "written childless," as a warning to posterity, that is, without a lineal heir to his throne. It is with a reference to the three kings, Shallum, Jehoiakim, and Jeconiah, that the earth is thrice invoked [BENGEL]. Or, the triple invocation is to give intensity to the call for attention to the announcement of the end of the... read more

Prophecies about King Jehoiachin (Coniah) 22:24-30This section contains two prophecies about this king (Jeremiah 22:24-30). The historical setting is the three-month reign of eighteen-year-old Jehoiachin in 598-597 B.C. (cf. 2 Kings 24:8-17). Coniah was a shortened form of Jeconiah (cf. Jeremiah 24:1; Jeremiah 27:20; Jeremiah 28:4; Jeremiah 29:2), the same man. read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Jeremiah 22:24-30
Concerning Jehoiachin (22:24-30)On Jehoiakim’s death, his eighteen year old son Jehoiachin (also known Jeconiah, or Coniah) was made king. He was doomed to a short reign of only three months followed by a long captivity in Babylon. Other members of the royal family would also go into captivity, along with many of the leading citizens of Jerusalem (24-27; cf. 2 Kings 24:8-15). Jehoiachin died in a foreign country, and no son of his became king after him (28-30; but see also 2 Kings 25:27-30). read more
