| The king of Egypt put him down - He now considered Judah to be conquered, and tributary to him and because the people had set up Jehoahaz without his consent, he dethroned him, and put his brother in his place, perhaps for no other reason but to show his supremacy. For other particulars, see the notes on Kg2 23:31-35 (note). |

32 And he did [06213] that which was evil [07451] in the sight [05869] of the LORD [03068], according to all that his fathers [01] had done [06213].
33 And Pharaohnechoh [06549] put him in bands [0631] at Riblah [07247] in the land [0776] of Hamath [02574], that he might not reign [04427] in Jerusalem [03389]; and put [05414] the land [0776] to a tribute [06066] of an hundred [03967] talents [03603] of silver [03701], and a talent [03603] of gold [02091].

35 And Jehoiakim [03079] gave [05414] the silver [03701] and the gold [02091] to Pharaoh [06547]; but he taxed [06186] the land [0776] to give [05414] the money [03701] according to the commandment [06310] of Pharaoh [06547]: he exacted [05065] the silver [03701] and the gold [02091] of the people [05971] of the land [0776], of every one [0376] according to his taxation [06187], to give [05414] it unto Pharaohnechoh [06549].
