A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882]
Against him came up Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon--This refers to the first expedition of Nebuchadnezzar against Palestine, in the lifetime of his father Nabopolassar, who, being old and infirm, adopted his son as joint sovereign and despatched him, with the command of his army, against the Egyptian invaders of his empire. Nebuchadnezzar defeated them at Carchemish, drove them out of Asia, and reduced all the provinces west of the Euphrates to obedience--among the rest the kingdom of Jehoiakim, who became a vassal of the Assyrian empire (Kg2 24:1). Jehoiakim at the end of three years threw off the yoke, being probably instigated to revolt by the solicitations of the king of Egypt, who planned a new expedition against Carchemish. But he was completely vanquished by the Babylonian king, who stripped him of all his possessions between the Euphrates and the Nile (Kg2 24:7). Then marching against the Egyptian's ally in Judah, he took Jerusalem, carried away a portion of the sacred vessels of the temple, perhaps in lieu of the unpaid tribute, and deposited them in the temple of his god, Belus, at Babylon (Dan 1:2; Dan 5:2). Though Jehoiakim had been taken prisoner (and it was designed at first to transport him in chains to Babylon), he was allowed to remain in his tributary kingdom. But having given not long after some new offense, Jerusalem was besieged by a host of Assyrian dependents. In a sally against them Jehoiakim was killed (see on Kg2 24:2-7; also Jer 22:18-19; Jer 36:30).

30 Therefore thus saith [0559] the LORD [03068] of Jehoiakim [03079] king [04428] of Judah [03063]; He shall have none to sit [03427] upon the throne [03678] of David [01732]: and his dead body [05038] shall be cast out [07993] in the day [03117] to the heat [02721], and in the night [03915] to the frost [07140].
18 Therefore thus saith [0559] the LORD [03068] concerning Jehoiakim [03079] the son [01121] of Josiah [02977] king [04428] of Judah [03063]; They shall not lament [05594] for him, saying, Ah [01945] my brother [0251]! or, Ah [01945] sister [0269]! they shall not lament [05594] for him, saying, Ah [01945] lord [0113]! or, Ah [01945] his glory [01935]!
19 He shall be buried [06912] with the burial [06900] of an ass [02543], drawn [05498] and cast forth [07993] beyond [01973] the gates [08179] of Jerusalem [03389].
2 And the LORD [03068] sent [07971] against him bands [01416] of the Chaldees [03778], and bands [01416] of the Syrians [0758], and bands [01416] of the Moabites [04124], and bands [01416] of the children [01121] of Ammon [05983], and sent [07971] them against Judah [03063] to destroy [06] it, according to the word [01697] of the LORD [03068], which he spake [01696] by [03027] his servants [05650] the prophets [05030].
3 Surely at the commandment [06310] of the LORD [03068] came this upon Judah [03063], to remove [05493] them out of his sight [06440], for the sins [02403] of Manasseh [04519], according to all that he did [06213];
4 And also for the innocent [05355] blood [01818] that he shed [08210]: for he filled [04390] Jerusalem [03389] with innocent [05355] blood [01818]; which the LORD [03068] would [014] not pardon [05545].
5 Now the rest [03499] of the acts [01697] of Jehoiakim [03079], and all that he did [06213], are they not written [03789] in the book [05612] of the chronicles [01697] [03117] of the kings [04428] of Judah [03063]?
6 So Jehoiakim [03079] slept [07901] with his fathers [01]: and Jehoiachin [03078] his son [01121] reigned [04427] in his stead.
7 And the king [04428] of Egypt [04714] came [03318] not again [03254] any more out of his land [0776]: for the king [04428] of Babylon [0894] had taken [03947] from the river [05158] of Egypt [04714] unto the river [05104] Euphrates [06578] all that pertained to the king [04428] of Egypt [04714].
2 Belshazzar [01113], whiles he tasted [02942] the wine [02562], commanded [0560] to bring [0858] the golden [01722] and silver [03702] vessels [03984] which his father [02] Nebuchadnezzar [05020] had taken [05312] out of [04481] the temple [01965] which was in Jerusalem [03390]; that the king [04430], and his princes [07261], his wives [07695], and his concubines [03904], might drink [08355] therein.
2 And the Lord [0136] gave [05414] Jehoiakim [03079] king [04428] of Judah [03063] into his hand [03027], with part [07117] of the vessels [03627] of the house [01004] of God [0430]: which he carried [0935] into the land [0776] of Shinar [08152] to the house [01004] of his god [0430]; and he brought [0935] the vessels [03627] into the treasure [0214] house [01004] of his god [0430].
7 And the king [04428] of Egypt [04714] came [03318] not again [03254] any more out of his land [0776]: for the king [04428] of Babylon [0894] had taken [03947] from the river [05158] of Egypt [04714] unto the river [05104] Euphrates [06578] all that pertained to the king [04428] of Egypt [04714].
1 In his days [03117] Nebuchadnezzar [05019] king [04428] of Babylon [0894] came up [05927], and Jehoiakim [03079] became his servant [05650] three [07969] years [08141]: then he turned [07725] and rebelled [04775] against him.
15 And the LORD [03068] God [0430] of their fathers [01] sent [07971] to them by [03027] his messengers [04397], rising up betimes [07925], and sending [07971]; because he had compassion [02550] on his people [05971], and on his dwelling place [04583]:
16 But they mocked [03931] the messengers [04397] of God [0430], and despised [0959] his words [01697], and misused [08591] his prophets [05030], until the wrath [02534] of the LORD [03068] arose [05927] against his people [05971], till there was no remedy [04832].
17 Therefore he brought [05927] upon them the king [04428] of the Chaldees [03778], who slew [02026] their young men [0970] with the sword [02719] in the house [01004] of their sanctuary [04720], and had no compassion [02550] upon young man [0970] or maiden [01330], old man [02205], or him that stooped for age [03486]: he gave [05414] them all into his hand [03027].
18 And all the vessels [03627] of the house [01004] of God [0430], great [01419] and small [06996], and the treasures [0214] of the house [01004] of the LORD [03068], and the treasures [0214] of the king [04428], and of his princes [08269]; all these he brought [0935] to Babylon [0894].
19 And they burnt [08313] the house [01004] of God [0430], and brake down [05422] the wall [02346] of Jerusalem [03389], and burnt [08313] all the palaces [0759] thereof with fire [0784], and destroyed [07843] all the goodly [04261] vessels [03627] thereof.
20 And them that had escaped [07611] from the sword [02719] carried he away [01540] to Babylon [0894]; where they were servants [05650] to him and his sons [01121] until the reign [04427] of the kingdom [04438] of Persia [06539]:
21 To fulfil [04390] the word [01697] of the LORD [03068] by the mouth [06310] of Jeremiah [03414], until the land [0776] had enjoyed [07521] her sabbaths [07676]: for as long as [03117] she lay desolate [08074] she kept sabbath [07673], to fulfil [04390] threescore and ten [07657] years [08141].
6 For, lo, I raise up [06965] the Chaldeans [03778], that bitter [04751] and hasty [04116] nation [01471], which shall march [01980] through the breadth [04800] of the land [0776], to possess [03423] the dwellingplaces [04908] that are not theirs.
1 In the third [07969] year [08141] of the reign [04438] of Jehoiakim [03079] king [04428] of Judah [03063] came [0935] Nebuchadnezzar [05019] king [04428] of Babylon [0894] unto Jerusalem [03389], and besieged [06696] it.
1 The word [01697] that came to Jeremiah [03414] concerning all the people [05971] of Judah [03063] in the fourth [07243] year [08141] of Jehoiakim [03079] the son [01121] of Josiah [02977] king [04428] of Judah [03063], that was the first [07224] year [08141] of Nebuchadrezzar [05019] king [04428] of Babylon [0894];
2 The which Jeremiah [03414] the prophet [05030] spake [01696] unto all the people [05971] of Judah [03063], and to all the inhabitants [03427] of Jerusalem [03389], saying [0559],
3 From the thirteenth [07969] [06240] year [08141] of Josiah [02977] the son [01121] of Amon [0526] king [04428] of Judah [03063], even unto this day [03117], that is the three [07969] and twentieth [06242] year [08141], the word [01697] of the LORD [03068] hath come unto me, and I have spoken [01696] unto you, rising early [07925] and speaking [01696]; but ye have not hearkened [08085].
4 And the LORD [03068] hath sent [07971] unto you all his servants [05650] the prophets [05030], rising early [07925] and sending [07971] them; but ye have not hearkened [08085], nor inclined [05186] your ear [0241] to hear [08085].
5 They said [0559], Turn ye again [07725] now every one [0376] from his evil [07451] way [01870], and from the evil [07455] of your doings [04611], and dwell [03427] in the land [0127] that the LORD [03068] hath given [05414] unto you and to your fathers [01] for [05704] ever [05769] and ever [05769]:
6 And go [03212] not after [0310] other [0312] gods [0430] to serve [05647] them, and to worship [07812] them, and provoke me not to anger [03707] with the works [04639] of your hands [03027]; and I will do you no hurt [07489].
7 Yet ye have not hearkened [08085] unto me, saith [05002] the LORD [03068]; that ye might provoke me to anger [03707] with the works [04639] of your hands [03027] to your own hurt [07451].
8 Therefore thus saith [0559] the LORD [03068] of hosts [06635]; Because ye have not heard [08085] my words [01697],
9 Behold, I will send [07971] and take [03947] all the families [04940] of the north [06828], saith [05002] the LORD [03068], and Nebuchadrezzar [05019] the king [04428] of Babylon [0894], my servant [05650], and will bring [0935] them against this land [0776], and against the inhabitants [03427] thereof, and against all these nations [01471] round about [05439], and will utterly destroy [02763] them, and make [07760] them an astonishment [08047], and an hissing [08322], and perpetual [05769] desolations [02723].
1 In his days [03117] Nebuchadnezzar [05019] king [04428] of Babylon [0894] came up [05927], and Jehoiakim [03079] became his servant [05650] three [07969] years [08141]: then he turned [07725] and rebelled [04775] against him.
2 And the LORD [03068] sent [07971] against him bands [01416] of the Chaldees [03778], and bands [01416] of the Syrians [0758], and bands [01416] of the Moabites [04124], and bands [01416] of the children [01121] of Ammon [05983], and sent [07971] them against Judah [03063] to destroy [06] it, according to the word [01697] of the LORD [03068], which he spake [01696] by [03027] his servants [05650] the prophets [05030].
3 Surely at the commandment [06310] of the LORD [03068] came this upon Judah [03063], to remove [05493] them out of his sight [06440], for the sins [02403] of Manasseh [04519], according to all that he did [06213];
4 And also for the innocent [05355] blood [01818] that he shed [08210]: for he filled [04390] Jerusalem [03389] with innocent [05355] blood [01818]; which the LORD [03068] would [014] not pardon [05545].
5 Now the rest [03499] of the acts [01697] of Jehoiakim [03079], and all that he did [06213], are they not written [03789] in the book [05612] of the chronicles [01697] [03117] of the kings [04428] of Judah [03063]?
6 So Jehoiakim [03079] slept [07901] with his fathers [01]: and Jehoiachin [03078] his son [01121] reigned [04427] in his stead.
1 In his days [03117] Nebuchadnezzar [05019] king [04428] of Babylon [0894] came up [05927], and Jehoiakim [03079] became his servant [05650] three [07969] years [08141]: then he turned [07725] and rebelled [04775] against him.
