Verse 33
Nechoh put him in bands - But what was the cause of his putting him in bands? It is conjectured, and not without reason, that Jehoahaz, otherwise called Shallum, raised an army, met Nechoh in his return from Carchemish, fought, was beaten, taken prisoner, put in chains; and taken into Egypt, where he died; 2 Kings 23:34 , and Jeremiah 22:11 , Jeremiah 22:12 . Riblah or Diblath, the place of this battle, was probably a town in Syria, in the land or district of Hamath.
