And Jehoiakim rested with his fathers The phrase "rested with his fathers" is a common biblical euphemism for death, indicating that Jehoiakim died and was buried. The Hebrew root for "rested" is "שָׁכַב" (shakab), which often implies lying down in death. This phrase suggests a continuity with the past, as it connects Jehoiakim with his ancestors, emphasizing the cyclical nature of life and the ongoing lineage of the Davidic line. Historically, Jehoiakim's reign was marked by turmoil and subjugation to Babylon, and his death signifies a transition in Judah's troubled history. and his son Jehoiachin became king in his place Persons / Places / Events 1.

Teaching Points The Consequences of DisobedienceJehoiakim's reign serves as a reminder that turning away from God's commands leads to downfall and judgment. His alliance with Egypt and disregard for prophetic warnings resulted in disaster for Judah. Leadership and Legacy The transition from Jehoiakim to Jehoiachin highlights the importance of godly leadership. Leaders are accountable for their actions, and their legacy can impact future generations. God's Sovereignty in History Despite human rebellion, God's plans prevail. The rise of Babylon and the fall of Judah were part of God's sovereign plan, demonstrating His control over nations and history. The Importance of Heeding Prophetic Warnings Jehoiakim ignored the warnings of prophets like Jeremiah, leading to his demise. This teaches us the importance of listening to God's messengers and aligning our lives with His will.(6) So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers.--The usual notice of the king's burial is omitted, and the omission is significant, considered in the light of Jeremiah's prophecy: "Thus saith the Lord concerning Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah; they shall not lament for him . . . He shall be buried with the burial of an ass, drawn and cast forth beyond the gates of Jerusalem"(Jeremiah 22:18-19; comp. Jeremiah 36:30). Jehoiakim appears to have been slain in an encounter with the bauds of freebooters mentioned in 2Kings 24:2, so that his body was left to decay where it fell, all his followers having perished with him. Ewald supposes that he was lured out of Jerusalem to a pretended conference with the Chaldeans, and then treacherously seized, and, as he proved a refractory prisoner, slain, and his body denied the last honours, his family craving its restoration in vain. (The words of the text do not necessarily imply a natural and peaceful death, as Thenius alleges, but simply death without further qualification.)Verse 6. - So Jehoiakim slept with his fathers. It is not certain that the writer means anything more by this than that "Jehoiakim died." His body may, however, possibly have been found by the Jews after the Babylonians had withdrawn from before Jerusalem, and have been entombed with those of Manasseh, Amen, and Josiah. And Jehoiachin his son reigned in his stead, Josephus says (l.s.c.) that Nebuchadnezzar placed him upon the throne, which is likely enough, since he would certainly not have quitted Jerusalem without setting up some king or other. Jehoiachin has in Scripture the two other names of Jeconiah (1 Chronicles 3:16, 17; Jeremiah 27:20; Jeremiah 28:4; Jeremiah 29:2) and Coniah (Jeremiah 22:24, 28; Jeremiah 37:1). Jehoiachin and Jeconiah differ only, as Jehoahaz and Ahaziah, by a reversal of the order of the two elements. Both mean "Jehovah will establish (him)." "Conlah" cuts off from "Jeconiah" the sign of futurity, and means "Jehovah establishes." It is used only by Jeremiah, and seems used by him to signify that though "Jehovah establishes," Jeconiah he would not establish. Parallel Commentaries ...
