Notes:

BIOGRAPHY: MANASSEH A king of Judah, son and successor of Hezekiah; reigned 55 years (2 Kings 21:1; 2 Chronicle s 33:1), from circa 685 onward. His was one of the few royal names not compounded with the na me of Yahweh (his son Amon's was the only other if, as an Assyrian inscription gives it, th e full name of Ahaz was Jehoahaz or Ahaziah); but it was no heathen name like Amon, but ident ical with that of the elder son of Joseph. Born within Hezekiah's added 15 years, years of tr embling faith and tender hope (compare Isaiah 38:15 f), his name may perhaps memorialize th e father's sacred feelings; the name of his mother Hephzibah too was used long afterward as t he symbol of the happy union of the land with its loyal sons (Isaiah 62:4). All this, however , was long forgotten in the memory of Manasseh's apostate career. . I. Sources of His Life. The history (2 Kings 1-18) refers for "the rest of his acts" to "the book of the chronicles o f the kings of Judah," but the body of the account, instead of reading like state annals, i s almost entirely a censure of his idolatrous reign in the spirit of the prophets and of th e Deuteronomic strain of literature. The parallel history (2 Chronicles 33:1-20) puts "the re st of his acts" "among the acts of the kings of Israel," and mentions his prayer (a prayer as cribed to him is in the Apocrypha) and "the words of the seers that spoke to him in the nam e of Yahweh." This history of Chronicles mentions his captive journey to Babylon and his repe ntance (2 Chronicles 33:10-13), also his building operations in Jerusalem and his resumptio n of Yahweh-worship (2 Chronicles 33:14-17), which the earlier source lacks. From these sourc es, which it is not the business of this article either to verify or question, the estimate o f his reign is to be deduced. . II. Character of His Reign. . 1. Political Situation: During his reign, Assyria, principally under Esar-haddon and Assur-banipal, was at the heigh t of its arrogance and power; and his long reign was the peaceful and uneventful life of a wi lling vassal, contented to count as tributary king in an illustrious world-empire, hospitabl e to all its religious and cultural ideas, and ready to take his part in its military and oth er enterprises. The two mentions of his name in Assyrian inscriptions (see G.A. Smith, Jerusa lem, II, 182) both represent him in this tributary light. His journey to Babylon mentioned i n 2 Chronicles 33:11 need not have been the penalty of rebellion; more likely it was such a n enforced act of allegiance as was perhaps imposed on all provincial rulers who had incurre d or would avert suspicion of disloyalty. Nor was his fortification of Jerusalem after his re turn less necessary against domestic than foreign aggression; the more so, indeed, as in so l ong and undisturbed a reign his capital, which was now practically synonymous with his real m (Esar-haddon calls him "king of the city of Judah"), became increasingly an important cente r of wealth and commercial prosperity. Of the specific events of his reign, however, other th an religious, less is known than of almost any other. . 2. Reactionary Idolatry: That the wholesale idolatry by which his reign is mainly distinguished was of a reactionary a nd indeed conservative nature may be understood alike from what it sought to maintain and fro m what it had to react against. On the one side was the tremendous wave of ritual and mechani cal heathen cults which, proceeding from the world-centers of culture and civilization (compa re Isaiah 2:6-8), was drawing all the tributary lands, Judah with the rest, into its almost i rresistible sweep. Manasseh, it would seem, met this not in the temper of an amateur, as ha d his grandfather Ahaz, but in the temper of a fanatic. Everything old and new that came to h is purview was of momentous religious value--except only the simple and austere demands of pr ophetic insight. He restored the debasing cults of the aboriginal Nature-worship which his fa ther had suppressed, thus making Judah revert to the sterile Baal-cults of Ahab; but his blin d credence in the black arts so prevalent in all the surrounding nations, imported the elabor ate worship of the heavenly bodies from Babylon, invading even the temple-courts with its num erous rites and altars; even went to the horrid extreme of human sacrifice, making an institu tion of what Ahaz had tried as a desperate expedient. All this, which to the matured propheti c sense was headlong wickedness, was the mark of a desperately earnest soul, seeking blindl y in this wholesale way to propitiate the mysterious Divine powers, his nation's God among th em, who seemed so to have the world's affairs in their inscrutable control. On the other side , there confronted him the prophetic voice of a religion which decried all insincere ritual ( `wickedness and worship,' Isaiah 1:13), made straight demands on heart and conscience, and ha d already vindicated itself in the faith which had wrought the deliverance of 701. It was th e fight of the decadent formal against the uprising spiritual; and, as in all such struggles , it would grasp at any expedient save the one plain duty of yielding the heart to repentanc e and trust. . 3. Persecution: Meanwhile, the saving intelligence and integrity of Israel, though still the secret of the lo wly, was making itself felt in the spiritual movement that Isaiah had labored to promote; thr ough the permeating influence of literature and education the "remnant" was becoming a powe r to be reckoned with. It is in the nature of things that such an innovating movement must en counter persecution; the significant thing is that already there was so much to persecute. Pe rsecution is as truly the offspring of fear as of fanaticism. Manasseh's persecution of the p rophets and their adherents (tradition has it that the aged Isaiah was one of his victims) wa s from their point of view an enormity of wickedness. To us the analysis is not quite so simp le; it looks also like the antipathy of an inveterate formal order to a vital movement that i t cannot understand. The vested interests of almost universal heathenism must needs die hard , and "much innocent blood" was its desperate price before it would yield the upper hand. T o say this of Manasseh's murderous zeal is not to justify it; it is merely to concede its sad ly mistaken sincerity. It may well have seemed to him that a nation's piety was at stake, a s if a world's religious culture were in peril. . 4. Return to Better Mind: The Chronicler, less austere in tone than the earlier historian, preserves for us the story t hat, like Saul of Tarsus after him, Manasseh got his eyes open to the truer meaning of things ; that after his humiliation and repentance in Babylon he "knew that Yahweh he was God" (2 Ch ronicles 33:10-13). He had the opportunity to see a despotic idolatry, its evils with its spl endors, in its own home; a first-fruit of the thing that the Hebrew exiles were afterward t o realize. On his return, accordingly, he removed the altars that had encroached upon the sac red precincts of the temple, and restored the ritual of the Yahweh-service, without, however , removing the high places. It would seem to have been merely the concession of Yahweh's righ t to a specific cult of His own, with perhaps a mitigation of the more offensive extremes o f exotic worship, while the toleration of the various fashionable forms remained much as befo re. But this in itself was something, was much; it gave Yahweh His chance, so to say, among r ivals; and the growing spiritual fiber of the heart of Israel could be trusted to do the rest . It helps us also the better to understand the situation when, only two years after Manasseh 's death, Josiah came to the throne, and to understand why he and his people were so ready t o accept the religious sanity of the Deuteronomic law. He did not succeed, after all, in comm itting his nation to the wholesale sway of heathenism. Manasseh's reactionary reign was indee d not without its good fruits; the crisis of religious syncretism and externalism was met an d passed. John Franklin Genung .

Manasses The name of seven persons of the Bible, a tribe of Israel, and one of the apocryphal writings . THE INDIVIDUALS (7) MANASSES, thirteenth King of Juda (692-638 B.C. — cf. Schrader, "Keilinschr. und das A. T ."), son and successor to Ezechias (IV Kings, xx, 21 sq.). The historian of IV Kings tells u s much about the evil of his reign (xxi, 2-10), and the punishment thereof foretold by the Pr ophets (verses 10- 15), but practically nothing about the rest of the doings of Manasses. H e brought back the abominations of Achaz; imported the adoration of "all the host of heaven" , seemingly the astral, solar, and lunar myths of Assyria; introduced the other enormities me ntioned in the Sacred text; and "made his son pass through fire" (verse 6) in the worship o f Moloch. It was probably in this frenzy of his varied forms of idolatry that "Manasses she d also very much innocent blood, till he filled Jerusalem up to the mouth" (verse 16). The hi storian of II Par. tells much the same story, and adds that, in punishment, the Lord brough t the Assyrians upon Juda. They carried Manasses to Babylon. The Lord heard his prayer for fo rgiveness and deliverance, and brought him again to Jerusalem, where Manasses did his part i n stemming the tide of idolatry that he had formerly forced upon Juda (xxxiii, 11-20). At on e time, doubt was cast on the historicity of this narrative of II Par., because IV Kings omit s the captivity of Manasses. Schrader (op. cit., 2nd ed., Giessen, 1883, 355) gives cuneifor m records of twenty- two kings that submitted to Assurhaddon during his expedition against Eg ypt; second on the list is Mi­na­si­i sar ir Ya­u­di (Manasses, king of the city of Juda). Sc hrader also gives the list of twenty-two kings who are recorded on a cuneiform tablet as trib utaries to Asurbanipal in the land of Hatti; second on this list is Mi­in­si­i sar mat Ya­u­d i (Manasses, king of the land of Juda). Since a Babylonian brick confirms the record of the h istorian of II Par., his reputation is made a little more secure in rationalistic circles. Wi nckler and Zimmern admit the presence of Manasses in Babylon (see their revision of Schrader' s "Keilinschr. und das A. T.", I, Berlin, 1902, 274). Conjectures of the Pan-Babylonian Schoo l as to the causes that led to the return of Manasses, the groundwork of the narrative in I V Kings, etc., do not militate against the historical worth of the Inspired Record.

Spouse: ? Children: son: Amon QUICK SKETCH While Manasseh had a long reign of 55 years, little seems to be known of the history of the p eriod. He undid all the religious reform of is father Hezekiah, and brought back the idols an d altars in high places. He worshipped Moloch, even passing one of his sons through the fire s of Moloch. There also seems to have been a religious persecution, as Manasseh is said to ha ve shed much innocent blood; apparently the victims were those who remain faithful to Jehovah . Then a hiatus appears in the reign of Manasseh. Judah paid tribute to Assyria a few years, th en Manasseh was carried to Babylon. A few years later he returned, resumed leadership in Juda h, and was a reformed person. He restored the temple and religious practices, and worshippe d Jehovah to the exclusion of the other gods. Assyria, in the meantime, had had several king s on the throne, the last during the time of Hezekiah was Asurbanipal. (http://www.ancientroute.com/people/manasseh.htm) MANASSEH Hezekiah had finally yielded to the admonitions of Isaiah, and had taken a wife unto himself , 93 the daughter of the Prophet. But he entered upon marriage with a heavy heart. His prophe tic spirit foretold to him that the impiousness of the sons he would beget would make their d eath to be preferable to their life. These fears were confirmed all too soon. His two sons, R abshakeh and Manasseh, showed their complete unlikeness to their parents in early childhood . Once, when Hezekiah was carrying his two little ones on his shoulders to the Bet ha-Midrash , he overheard their conversation. The one said: "Our father's bald head might do for fryin g fish." The other rejoined: "It would do well for offering sacrifices to idols." Enraged b y these words, Hezekiah let his sons slip from his shoulders. Rabshakeh was killed by the fal l, but Manasseh escaped unhurt. 94 Better had it been if Manasseh had shared his brother's un timely fate. He was spared for naught but murder, idolatry, and other abominable atrocities . 95 After Hezekiah had departed this life, Manasseh ceased to serve the God of his father. He di d whatever his evil imagination prompted. The altar was destroyed, and in the inner space o f the Temple he set up an idol 96 with four faces, copied from the four figures on the thron e of God. It was so placed that from whatever direction one entered the Temple, a face of th e idol confronted him. 97 As Manasseh was sacrilegious toward God, he was malevolent toward his fellows. He had fashion ed an image so large that it required a thousand men to carry it. Daily a new force was emplo yed on this task, because Manasseh had each set of porters killed off at the end of the day' s work. All his acts were calculated to cast contempt upon Judaism and its tenets. It did no t satisfy his evil desire to obliterate the name of God from the Holy Scriptures; 98 he wen t so far as to deliver public lectures whose burden was to ridicule the Torah. 99 Isaiah an d the other Prophets, Micah, Joel, and Habakkuk, 100 left Jerusalem and repaired to a mountai n in the desert, that they might be spared the sight of the abominations practiced by the kin g. Their abiding-place was disclosed to the king. A Samaritan, a descendant of the false Prop het Zedekiah, had taken refuge in Jerusalem after the destruction of the Temple. But he did n ot remain there long; charges were made against him before the pious king Hezekiah, and he wi thdrew to Bethlehem, where he gathered hangers-on about him. This Samaritan it was who trace d the Prophets to their retreat, and lodged accusations against them before Manasseh. 101 Th e impious king sat in judgment on Isaiah, and condemned him to death. The indictment agains t him was that his prophecies contained teachings in contradiction with the law of Moses. Go d said unto Moses: "Thou canst not see My face; for man shall not see Me and live"; while Isa iah said: "I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up." Again, Isaiah compare d the princes of Israel and the people with the impious inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah, an d he prophesied the downfall of Jerusalem and the destruction of the Temple. 102 The Prophe t offered no explanation. He was convinced of the uselessness of defending himself, and he pr eferred Manasseh should act from ignorance rather than from wickedness. However, he fled fo r safety. When he heard the royal bailiffs in pursuit of him, he pronounced the Name of God , and a cedar-tree swallowed him up. The king ordered the tree to be sawn in pieces. When th e saw was applied to the portion of the bark under which the mouth of Isaiah lay concealed, h e died. His mouth was the only vulnerable part of his body, because at the time when he was c alled to his prophetical mission, 103 it had made use of the contemptuous words "a people o f unclean lips," regarding Israel. Isaiah died at the age of one hundred and twenty years, 10 4 by the hands of his own grandchild. 105 God is long-suffering, but in the end Manasseh received the deserved punishment for his sin s and crimes. In the twenty-second year of his rulership, the Assyrians came and carried hi m off to Babylon in fetters, him together with the old Danite idol, Micah's image. 106 In Bab ylonia, the king was put into an oven which was heated from below. Finding himself in this ex tremity, Manasseh began to call upon god after god to help him out of his straits. As this pr oved inefficacious, he resorted to other means. "I remember," he said, "my father taught me t he verse: 'When thou art in tribulation, if in the latter days thou shalt return to the Lor d thy God, and hearken unto His voice, He will not fail thee.' Now I cry to God. If He inclin es His ear unto me, well and good; if not, then all kinds of god are alike." The angels stopp ed up the windows of heaven, that the prayer of Manasseh might not ascend to God, and they sa id: "Lord of the world

Art Thou willing to give gracious hearing to one who has paid worshi p to idols, and set up an idol in the Temple?" "If I did not accept the penance of this man, " replied God, "I should be closing the door in the face of all repentant sinners." God mad e a small opening under the Throne of His Glory, and received the prayer of Manasseh throug h it. Suddenly a wind arose, and carried Manasseh back to Jerusalem. 107 His return to God no t only helped him in his distress, but also brought him pardon for all his sins, so that no t even his share in the future world was withdrawn from him. 108 The people of this time were attracted to idolatry with so irresistible a force that the vas t learning of Manasseh, who knew fifty-two different interpretations of the Book of Leviticus , 109 did not give him enough moral strength to withstand its influence. Rab Ashi, the famou s compiler of the Talmud, once announced a lecture on Manasseh with the words: "To-morrow I s hall speak about our colleague Manasseh." At night the king appeared to Ashi in a dreams, an d put a ritual question to him, which the Rabbi could not answer. Manasseh told him the solut ion, and Ashi, in amazement at the king's scholarship, asked why one so erudite had served id ols. Manasseh's reply was: "Hadst thou lived at my time, thou wouldst have caught hold of th e hem of my garment and run after me." 110 Amon, the son of Manasseh, surpassed his father in wickedness.

Notes:

In the 13th year of the reign of Josiah ben Amon, king of Judah, came the word of the Lord t o Jeremiah. (Jeremiah 1:2) . The word of the Lord also came in the days of Jehoiakim ben Josiah, king of Judah, unto the e nd of the 11th year of Zedekiah ben Josiah, king of Judah, unto the carrying away of Jerusalem captive in the 5th month. (Jeremiah 1:3) BD Josiah (1) King of Judah, 641-610 B.C. (see 2 Kgs. 22 - 24; 2 Chr. 34 - 35). While still young, he m ade, under the guidance of Hilkiah, a thorough religious reformation, which extended to the n orthern tribes. He restored the temple, destroyed idolatrous images and the high places, pu t down the idolatrous priests, and celebrated a great Passover (2 Kgs. 23: 21-23). During thi s reformation a book of the law was found by Hilkiah (2 Kgs. 22: 8 f.; 2 Chr. 34: 15 f.). I t made at once a great impression, and led to the centralizing of all sacrificial worship a t Jerusalem and the abolition of local idolatrous sanctuaries in the war between Assyria an d Egypt, and, though Pharaoh-Neco disclaimed enmity, Josiah met him in battle at Megiddo an d was defeated and slain (2 Chr. 35: 20-25; see also 2 Kgs. 23: 29-30; Jer. 22: 10-12, 18; Ze ch. 12: 11). Josiah is from a Hebrew name meaning "The Lord Supports"; Diminutives: Josh; Alternates: Josi as; Greek: Josias. Royalty: Josiah (640-609 B.C) -- A King of Judah. Josiah Josiah or Josias, in the Bible. 1 King of Judah, son and successor of Amon. The great event o f his reign came in its 18th year, when the book of the law, apparently Deuteronomy, was foun d in the Temple. Josiah had it read publicly, and a reform movement began, led by the young k ing. The basis of the reforms, which extended to the northern kingdom of Israel, was the remo val of all outlying religious centers so as to concentrate everything in worship at Jerusalem . When the pharaoh Necho set out to help the Assyrians in Haran, Josiah opposed him and fell , at Megiddo. He was succeeded by his son Jehoahaz. 2 Man at whose house the prophet Zecharia h was to crown the high priest. The Expanded Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia Copyright© 2000.

Josias JOSIAH jo-si' ah King of Judah, 639 - 608 BCE Born: c.647, Died: c.608 BCE Heritage: Judaean, Jerusalem Faith: Jewish Father: Amon Mother: Jedidah Spouse: Zebididah; Hamutal; Children: son: Jehoiakim son: Jeho ahaz II son: Zedekiah QUICK SKETCH After Josiah’s father was killed, the people rose up, tracked down and slew the murderers, th en put Josiah on the throne. Josiah was eight years old at the time, and completely under th e control of the priests, especially Hilkiah, the high priest. This fact puts the nationalist ic prophetic party under suspicion, as the next official acts was to destroy all the false go ds and their temples. A general purge went through the land of Judah, and the temple was repa ired. During the repairs, a copy of "the Book of the Law" was found by Hilkiah, and read to t he king. Josiah, then about twelve, read the scroll to the people and had them swear a solem n oath to follow the laws set down therein. Of the remainder of Josiah’s reign we know little. The Law was sent throughout the land, incl uding much of Israel, as the king of Assyria was an absentee ruler. Pharaoh Necho marched fro m Egypt along the coast toward Carchemish to do battle with Assyria. Josiah opposed his march ; they met in battle on the plain of Esdraelon, and Josiah was mortally wounded. He died befo re reaching Jerusalem, his throne passing to Jehoahaz II. (http://www.ancientroute.com/people/josiah.htm) JOSIAH AND HIS SUCCESSORS That the full measure of punishment was not meted out to Amon his evil deeds were such that h e should have forfeited his share in the world to come was due to the circumstance that he ha d a pious and righteous son. 113 JOSIAH offers a shining model of true, sincere repentance. 1 14 Though at first he followed in the footsteps of his father Amon, he soon gave up the way s of wickedness, and became one of the most pious kings of Israel, whose chief undertaking wa s the effort to bring the whole people back to the true faith. It dates from the time whe n a copy of the Torah was found in the Temple, a copy that had escaped the holocaust kindle d by his father and predecessor Amon for the purpose of exterminating the Holy Scriptures. 11 5 When he opened the Scriptures, the first verse to strike his eye was the one in Deuteronomy : "The Lord shall bring thee and thy king into exile, unto a nation which thou hast not known ." JOSIAH feared this doom of exile was impending, and he sought to conciliate God through th e reform of his people. 116 His first step was to enlist the intercession of the Prophets in his behalf. He addressed hi s request, not to Jeremiah, but to the Prophetess Huldah, knowing that women are more easil y moved to compassion. As Jeremiah was a kinsman of the Prophetess their common ancestors wer e Joshua and Rahab the king felt no apprehension that the Prophet take his preference for Hul dah amiss. The proud, dignified answer of the Prophetess was, that the misfortune could not b e averted from Israel, but the destruction of the Temple, she continued consolingly, would no t happen until after the death of JOSIAH. 117 In view of the imminent destruction of the Temp le, JOSIAH hid the holy Ark and all its appurtenances, in order to guard them against desecra tion at the hands of the enemy. 118 The efforts of the king in behalf of God and His law found no echo with the great majority o f the people. Though the king was successful in preventing the worship of idols in public, hi s subjects knew how to deceive him. JOSIAH sent out his pious sympathizers to inspect the hou ses of the people, and he was satisfied with their report, that they had found no idols, no t suspecting that the recreant people has fastened half an image on each wing of the doors, s o that the inmates faced their household idols as they closed the door upon JOSIAH's inspecto rs. This godless generation contemporaneous with JOSIAH was to blame for his death. When King Pha raoh, in his campaign against the Assyrians, wanted to travel through Palestine, Jeremiah adv ised the king [JOSIAH] not to deny the Egyptians the passage through his land. He cited a pro phecy by his teacher Isaiah, who had foreseen the war between Assyria and Egypt. But JOSIAH r etorted: "Moses, thy teacher's teacher, spake: 'I will give peace in the land, and no sword s hall go through your land,' not even the sword that is not raised against Israel with hostil e intent." The king, innocent of the deception practiced by the people, knew not that they we re idol worshippers, to whom the promises of the Torah have no application. In the engagemen t that ensued between the Jews and the Egyptians, no less than three hundred darts struck th e king. In his death agony he uttered no word of complaint; he only said: "The Lord is righte ous, for I have rebelled against His commandment," thus admitting his guilt in not having hee ded the advice of the Prophet. 119 So ended the days of this just king after a brilliant career, the only king since Solomon t o rule over both Judah and Israel, for Jeremiah had brought back to Palestine the ten exile d tribes of the north, and made them subject to JOSIAH. 120 The mourning for him was profound . 121 Even Jeremiah perpetuated his memory in his Lamentations. 122 Josiah (II Chronicles 34-36:1) Josiah was the last godly king in Judah. He came to power in 640 B.C. as a young child. Durin g his reign he reformed the Temple and its worship. The Book of the Law was rediscovered duri ng these reforms, but unfortunately Josiah’s successors undid much of the good he accomplishe d. Josiah was killed in battle with Pharaoh Necho of Egypt at Megiddo in 609 B.C. http://www.wls.wels.net/Publications/Theologia/vol2no1/ToppeJeremiah/ToppeJeremiah.htm Yoshiyahu Hiding the Temple Vessels before the First Temple was Destroyed: Yuma 52b Yoshiyah's choice of Chuldah over Yirmiyah: Megillah 14b Yoshiyah's reign over the Ten Tribes upon their return: 14b Yoshiyah was killed by being pierced by a multitude of arrows: Moed Katan 28b The eulogy for Yoshiyah: Megillah 3a; Moed Katan 28b

Notes:

Jehoahaz was also called Shallum. (1 Chronicles 3:15) SHALLUM 4. See JEHOAHAZ, number three JEHOAHAZ 2. Son of Jehoram, king of Judah -- 2 Chronicles 21:17 (See AHAZIAH) Also called SHALLUM King of Judah and successor of Josiah -- 2 Kings 23:30,31; 1 Chronicles 3:15; 2 Chronicles 36 :1; Jeremiah 22:11 Wicked reign of -- 2 Kings 23:32 Pharaoh-necho, king of Egypt, invades the kingdom of, defeats him, and takes him away captiv e to Egypt -- 2 Kings 23:33-35; 2 Chronicles 36:3,4 Prophecies concerning -- Jeremiah 22:10,11,12 SHALLUM SHALLUWM Shallum = "retribution" (shal-loom') 2. the 3rd son of king Josiah of Judah and subsequent king of Judah; reigned for 3 months bef ore he was taken captive to Egypt where he was placed in chains and later died (also 'Jehoaha z') JEHOAHAZ (2) A king of Judah, son and successor of Josiah; reigned three months and was deposed, 608 B C. Called "Shallum" in Jeremiah 22:11; compare 1 Chronicles 3:15. The story of his reign is t old in 2 Kings 23:30-35, and in a briefer account in 2 Chronicles 36:1-3. The historian o 2 K ings characterizes his reign as evil; 2Ch passes no verdict upon him. On the death of his fat her in battle, which threw the realm into confusion, he, though a younger son (compare 2 King s 23:31 with 23:36; 1 Chronicles 3:15 makes him the fourth son of Josiah), was raised to th e throne by "the people of the land," the same who had secured the accession to his father; s ee under JOSIAH. Perhaps, as upholders of the sterling old Davidic idea, which his father ha d carried out so well, they saw in him a better hope for its integrity than in his elder brot her Jehoiakim (Eliakim), whose tyrannical tendencies may already have been too apparent. Th e prophets also seem to have set store by him, if we may judge by the sympathetic mentions o f him in Jeremiah 22:11 and Ezekiel 1:3,4. His career was too short, however, to make any mar ked impression on the history of Judah. Josiah's ill-advised meddling with the designs of Pharaoh-necoh (see under JOSIAH) had had, i n fact, the ill effect of plunging Judah again into the vortex of oriental politics, from whi ch it had long been comparatively free. The Egyptian king immediately concluded that so presu mptuous a state must not be left in his rear unpunished. Arrived at Riblah on his Mesopotamia n expedition, he put Jehoahaz in bonds, and later carried him prisoner to Egypt, where he die d; raised his brother Jehoiakim to the throne as a vassal king; and imposed on the realm a fi ne of a hundred talents of silver and a talent of gold. So the fortunes of the Judean state , so soon after Josiah's good reign, began their melancholy change for the worse. SHALLUM (1) shal'-um (Shallum, Shallum; various forms in the Septuagint): This is the name of not less than 12 Hebrew persons: (6) The 15th king of Israel. See following article. SHALLUM (1) shal'-um (Shallum, Shallum; various forms in the Septuagint): This is the name of not less than 12 Hebrew persons: (10) King of Judah and son of Josiah (Jeremiah 22:11; 1 Chronicles 3:15), better known by th e name Jehoahaz II. This name he received when he ascended the throne of the kingdom of Juda h (2 Chronicles 36:1). Jeho’ahaz (whom the Lord sustains ). Jehoahaz, otherwise called Shallum, son of Josiah, whom he succeeded as king of Judah. He wa s chosen by the people in preference to his elder (comp. (2 Kings 23:31 ) and 2Kin 23:36 ) brother, B.C. 610, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem. Pharaoh-ne cho sent to Jerusalem to depose him and to fetch him to Riblah. There he was cast into chains , and from thence he was taken into Egypt, where he died. SHALLUM (retribution). 4. The third son of Josiah king of Judah, known in the books of Kings and Chronicles as Jehoa haz. (1 Chronicles 3:15; Jeremiah 22:11) [JEHOAHAZ] (B.C. 610.) Jehoahaz - Jehovah his sustainer, or he whom Jehovah holdeth. 3. Josiah's third son, usually called Shallum (1 Chronicles 3:15). He succeeded his father o n the throne, and reigned over Judah for three months (2 Kings 23:31,34). He fell into the id olatrous ways of his predecessors (23:32), was deposed by Pharaoh-Necho from the throne, an d carried away prisoner into Egypt, where he died in captivity (23:33,34; Jeremiah 22:10-12 ; 2Chr 36:1-4). SHALLUM Retribution. 11. A son of king Josiah (1 Chronicles 3:15; Jeremiah 22:11), who was elected to succeed hi s father on the throne, although he was two years younger than his brother Eliakim. He assume d the crown under the name of Jehoahaz (q.v.). He did not imitate the example of his father ( 2 Kings 23:32), but was "a young lion, and it learned to catch the prey; it devoured men" (Ez ekiel 19:3). His policy was anti-Egyptian therefore. Necho, at that time at Riblah, sent an a rmy against Jerusalem, which at once yielded, and Jehoahaz was carried captive to the Egyptia n camp, Eliakim being appointed king in his stead. He remained a captive in Egypt till his de ath, and was the first king of Judah that died in exile. BD Shallum (4) Fourth son of Josiah II, king of Judah (1 Chr. 3: 15; Jer. 22: 11); called Jehoahaz i n 2 Kgs. 23: 30; 2 Chr. 36: 1. Shallum JEHOAHAZ II je-ho' a-haz King of Judah, 609 BCE Born: c.632, Died: c.609 BCE Heritage: Judaean, Jerusalem Faith: Jewish Father: Josiah Mother: ? Spouse: ? Children: ? QUICK SKETCH His father Josiah had opposed the march of Pharaoh Necho northwards along the coast, where h e was mortally wounded. The people put Jehoahaz II on the throne of his father, where he cont inued the opposition. Shortly thereafter, Pharaoh Necho appeared at Jerusalem, cast Jehoaha z II into chains, and had him sent to Egypt. His elder brother, Jehoiakim, was put in place. (http://www.ancientroute.com/people/jehoahaz2.htm) Jehoahaz (Shallum) (II Chronicles 36:2-4) This son of Josiah was king only a short time in 609 B.C. before Necho took him into exile wh ere he died. II Kings 23 says that, "he did evil in the eyes of the LORD, just as his father s had done," (v.32). Jeremiah recorded the LORD’s judgment on Jehoahaz: "He will never return . He will die in the place where they have led him captive; he will not see this land again, " (22:11-12). (http://www.wls.wels.net/Publications/Theologia/vol2no1/ToppeJeremiah/ToppeJeremiah.htm)

Original name of Zedekiah, king of Judah -- 2 Kings 24:17 See ZEDEKIAH ZEDEKIAH Righteousness of Jehovah. 1. The last king of Judah. He was the third son of Josiah, and his mother's name was Hamutal , the daughter of Jeremiah of Libnah, and hence he was the brother of Jehoahaz (2 Kings 23:31 ; 24:17,18). His original name was Mattaniah; but when Nebuchadnezzar placed him on the thron e as the successor to Jehoiachin he changed his name to Zedekiah. The prophet Jeremiah was hi s counsellor, yet "he did evil in the sight of the Lord" (2 Kings 24:19,20; Jeremiah 52:2,3) . He ascended the throne at the age of twenty-one years. The kingdom was at that time tributa ry to Nebuchadnezzar; but, despite the strong remonstrances of Jeremiah and others, as well a s the example of Jehoiachin, he threw off the yoke of Babylon, and entered into an alliance w ith Hophra, king of Egypt. This brought up Nebuchadnezzar, "with all his host" (2King 25:1) , against Jerusalem. During this siege, which lasted about eighteen months, "every worst wo e befell the devoted city, which drank the cup of God's fury to the dregs" (2 Kings 25:3; Lam entations 4:4,5,10). The city was plundered and laid in ruins. Zedekiah and his followers, at tempting to escape, were made captive and taken to Riblah. There, after seeing his own childr en put to death, his own eyes were put out, and, being loaded with chains, he was carried cap tive (B.C. 588) to Babylon (2 Kings 25:1-7; 2Chr 36:12; Jeremiah 32:4,5; 34:2,3; 39:1-7; 52:4 -11; Ezekiel 12:12), where he remained a prisoner, how long is unknown, to the day of his dea th. After the fall of Jerusalem, Nebuzaraddan was sent to carry out its complete destruction. Th e city was razed to the ground. Only a small number of vinedressers and husbandmen were permi tted to remain in the land (Jeremiah 52:16). Gedaliah, with a Chaldean guard stationed at Miz pah, ruled over Judah (2 Kings 25:22,24; Jeremiah 40:1,2,5,6). MATTANIAH Gift of Jehovah. 3. The original name of Zedekiah (q.v.), the last of the kings of Judah (2 Kings 24:17). He w as the third son of Josiah, who fell at Megiddo. He succeeded his nephew Jehoiakin. ZEDEKIAH (justice of Jehovah ). 1. The last king of Judah and Jerusalem. He was the son of Josiah by his wife Hamutal, and th erefore own brother to Jehoahaz. (2 Kings 24:18) comp. 2Kin 23:31 His original name was Matta niah, which was changed to Zedekiah by Nebuchadnezzar when he carried off his nephew Jehoiach im to Babylon and left him on the throne of Jerusalem. Zedekiah was but twenty-one years ol d when he was thus placed in charge of an impoverished kingdom, B.C. 597. His history is cont ained in a short sketch .of the events of his reign given in (2 Kings 24:17; 2 Kings 25:7) an d, with some trifling variations in (Jeremiah 39:1-7; 62:1-11) together with the still shorte r summary in (1 Chronicles 38:10) etc.; and also in Jere 21,24,27,28,29,32,34,37,38 and (Ezek iel 16:11-21) From these it is evident that Zedekiah was a man not so much bad at heart as we ak in will. It is evident from Jere 27 and 28 that the earlier portion of Zedekiah’s reign wa s marked by an agitation throughout the whole of Syria against the Babylonian yoke. Jerusale m seems to have taken the lead, since in the fourth year of Zedekiah’s reign we find ambassad ors from all the neighboring kingdoms --Tyre, Sidon, Edom and Moab --at his court to consul t as to the steps to be taken. The first act of rebellion of which any record survives was th e formation of an alliance with Egypt, of itself equivalent to a declaration of enmity with B abylon. As a natural consequence it brought on Jerusalem an immediate invasion of the Chaldae ans. The mention of this event in the Bible though indisputable, is extremely slight, and occ urs only in (Jeremiah 37:5-11; 34:21) and Ezek 17:15-20 But Josephus (x.7,3) relates it mor e fully, and gives the date of its occurrence, namely, the eighth year of Zedekiah. (B.C. 589 .) Nebuchadnezzar at once sent an army to ravage Judea. This was done, and the whole countr y reduced, except Jerusalem and two strong places in the western plain, Lachish and Azekah, w hich still held out. (Jeremiah 34:7) Called away for a time by an attack from Pharaoh and th e Egyptians, on the tenth day of the tenth month of Zedekiah’s ninth year the Chaldeans wer e again before the walls. (Jeremiah 52:4) From this time forward the siege progressed slowl y but surely to its consummation, The city was indeed reduced to the last extremity. The brea d had for long been consumed, (Jeremiah 38:9) and all the terrible expedients had been trie d to which the wretched inhabitants of a besieged town are forced to resort in such cases. A t last, after sixteen dreadful months the catastrophe arrived. It was on the ninth day of th e fourth month, about the middle of July at midnight, as Josephus with careful minuteness inf orms us, that the breach in those strong and venerable walls was effected. The moon, nine day s old, had gone down. The wretched remnants of the army acquitted the city in the dead of nig ht; and as the Chaldaean army entered the city at one end, the king and his wives fled from i t by the opposite gate. They took the road toward the Jordan. As soon as the dawn of day perm itted it, swift pursuit was made. The king’s party were overtaken near Jericho and carried t o Nebuchadnezzar, who was then at Riblah, at the upper end of the valley of Lebanon. Nebuchad nezzar, with a refinement of barbarity characteristic of those cruel times ordered the sons o f Zedekiah to be killed before him, and lastly his own eyes to be thrust out. He was then loa ded with brazen fetters, and at a later period taken to Babylon, where he died. MATTANIAH (gift of Jehovah). 1.

His Fate 6. Doom of the Nation The last king of Judah, uncle and successor of Jehoiachin; reigned 11 years, from 597 to 586 , and was carried captive to Babylon. I. Sources for His Reign and Time. 1. Annalistic: Neither of the accounts in 2 Kings 24:18-25:7 and 2 Chronicles 36:11-21 refers, as is the usu al custom, to state annals; these ran out with the reign of Jehoiakim. The history in 2 King s is purely scribal and historianic in tone; 2 Chronicles, especially as it goes on to the ca ptivity, is more fervid and homiletic. Both have a common prophetic origin; and indeed Jeremi ah 52, which is put as an appendix to the book of his prophecy, tells the story of the reig n and subsequent events, much as does 2 Kings, but in somewhat fuller detail. 2. Prophetic: Two prophets are watching with keen eyes the progress of this reign, both with the poignant s ense that the end of the Judean state is imminent: Jeremiah in Jerusalem and Ezekiel, one of the captives in the deportation with Jehoiachin, i n Babylon. Dates are supplied with the prophecies of both: Jeremiah's numbered from the begin ning of the reign and not consecutive; Ezekiel's numbered from the beginning of the first cap tivity, and so coinciding with Jeremiah's. From these dated prophecies the principal ideas ar e to be formed of the real inwardness of the time and the character of the administration. Th e prophetic passages identifiable with this reign, counted by its years, are: Jeremiah 24, af ter the deportation of Jehoiachin (Jeconiah)--the inferior classes left with Zedekiah (compar e Ezekiel 11:15; 17:12-14); Jer 27-29, beginning of reign--false hopes of return of captive s and futile diplomacies with neighboring nations; Jeremiah 51:59; 4 th year--Zedekiah's visi t to Babylon; Ezekiel 4-7; 5 th year--symbolic prophecies of the coming end of Judah; Ezekie l 8-12; 6 th year--quasi-clairvoyant view of the idolatrous corruptions in Jerusalem; Ezekie l 17:11-21, same year--Zedekiah's treacherous intrigues with Egypt; Ezekiel 21:18-23; 7 th ye ar--Nebuchadnezzar casting a divination to determine his invasion of Judah; Jeremiah 21, unda ted but soon after--deputation from the king to the prophet inquiring Yahweh's purpose; Jerem iah 34:1-7, undated--the prophet's word to the king while Nebuchadnezzar's invasion is stil l among the cities of the land; Ezekiel 24:1,2; 9 th year--telepathic awareness of the beginn ing of the siege, synchronistic with Jeremiah 39:1-10; 2 Kings 25:1-7; Jer 37; 38, undated, b ut soon after--prophecies connected with the temporary raising of the siege and the false fai th of the ruling classes; Jeremiah 32; 10 th year--Jeremiah's redemption of his Anathoth prop erty in the midst of siege, and the good presage of the act; Jeremiah 39; 11 th year--annalis tic account of the breaching of the city wall and the flight and eventual fate of the king . A year and a half later Ezekiel (33:21,22) hears the news from a fugitive. II. The Administration of the Last King of Judah. 1. The Situation: When Nebuchadnezzar took away Jehoiachin, and with him all the men of weight and character (s ee under JEHOIACHIN), his object was plain: to leave a people so broken in resources and spirit that they would not be moved to rebellio n (see Ezekiel 17:14). But this measure of his effected a segmentation of the nation which th e prophets immediately recognized as virtually separating out their spiritual "remnant" to g o to Babylon, while the worldly and inferior grades remained in Jerusalem. These are sharpl y distinguished from each other by Jeremiah in his parable of the Figs (chapter 24), publishe d soon after the first deportation. The people that were left were probably of the same sor t that Zephaniah described a few years before, those who had "settled on their lees" (1:12) , a godless and inert element in religion and state. Their religious disposition is portraye d by Ezekiel in Zedekiah's 6th year, in his clairvoyant vision of the uncouth temple rites, a s it were a cesspool of idolatry, maintained under the pretext that Yahweh had forsaken the l and (see Eze 8). Clearly these were not of the prophetic stamp. It was over such an inferio r grade of people that Zedekiah was appointed to a thankless and tragic reign. 2. The Parvenu Temper: For a people so raw and inexperienced in administration the prophets recognized one clear dut y: to keep the oath which they had given to Nebuchadnezzar (see Ezekiel 17:14-16). But they acte d like men intoxicated with new power; their accession to property and unwonted position turn ed their heads. Soon after the beginning of the reign we find Jeremiah giving emphatic warnin g both to his nation and the ambassadors of neighboring nations against a rebellious coalitio n (Jeremiah 27 mistakenly dated in the 4th year of Jehoiakim; compare 27:3,12); he has also a n encounter with prophets who, in contradiction of his consistent message, predict the speed y restoration of Jehoiachin and the temple vessels. The king's visit to Babylon (Jeremiah 51: 59) was probably made to clear himself of complicity in treasonable plots. Their evil genius , Egypt, however, is busy with the too headstrong upstart rulers; and about the middle of th e reign Zedekiah breaks his covenant with his over-lord and, relying on Egypt, embarks on reb ellion. The prophetic view of this movement is, that it is a moral outrage; it is breakin g a sworn word (Ezekiel 17:15-19), and thus falsifying the truth of Yahweh. 3. Inconsistencies: This act of rebellion against the king of Babylon was not the only despite done to "Yahweh' s oath." Its immediate effect, of course, was to precipitate the invasion of the Chaldean for ces, apparently from Riblah on the Orontes, where for several years Nebuchadnezzar had his he adquarters. Ezekiel has a striking description of his approach, halting to determine by arro w divination whether to proceed against Judah or Ammon (21:18-23). Before laying siege to Jer usalem, however, he seems to have spent some time reducing outlying fortresses (compare Jerem iah 34:1-7); and during the suspense of this time the king sent a deputation to Jeremiah to i nquire whether Yahweh would not do "according to all his wondrous works," evidently hoping fo r some such miraculous deliverance as had taken place in the time of Sennacherib (Jeremiah 21 :1). The prophet gives his uniform answer, that the city must fall; advising the house of Dav id also to "execute justice and righteousness." Setting about this counsel as if they would b ribe Yahweh's favor, the king then entered into an agreement with his people to free all thei r Hebrew bond-slaves (Jeremiah 34:8-10), and sent back a deputation to the prophet entreatin g his intercession (Jeremiah 37:3), as if, having bribed Yahweh, they might work some kind o f a charm on the divine will. Nebuchadnezzar had meanwhile invested the city; but just then t he Egyptian army approached to aid Judah, and the Babylonian king raised the siege long enoug h to drive the Egyptians back to their own land; at which, judging that Yahweh had interfere d as of old, the people caused their slaves to return to their bondage (Jeremiah 34:11). Thi s treachery called forth a trenchant prophecy from Jeremiah, predicting not only the speedy r eturn of the Chaldean army (Jeremiah 37:6-10), but the captivity of the king and the destruct ion of the city (Jeremiah 34:17-22). It was during this temporary cessation of the siege tha t Jeremiah, attempting to go to Anathoth to redeem his family property, was seized on the pre text of deserting to the enemy, and put in prison (Jeremiah 37:11-15). 4. Character of the King: During the siege, which was soon resumed, Zedekiah's character, on its good and bad sides, wa s revealed through his frequent contact with the prophet Jeremiah. The latter was a prisone r most of the time; and the indignities which he suffered, and which the king heedlessly allo wed, show how the prophet's word and office had fallen in respect (compare the treatment he r eceived, Jeremiah 26:16-19 with 37:15; 38:6). The king, however, was not arrogant and heartle ss like his brother Jehoiakim; he was weak and without consistent principles; besides, he wa s rather helpless and timid in the hands of his headstrong officials (compare Jeremiah 38:5,2 4-26). His regard for the word of prophecy was rather superstitious than religious: while the prophet's message and counsel were uniformly consistent, he could not bring himsel f to follow the will of Yahweh, and seemed to think that Yahweh could somehow be persuaded t o change his plans (see Jeremiah 37:17; 38:14-16). His position was an exceedingly difficul t one; but even so, he had not the firmness, the wisdom, the consistency for it. In his siege of the city Nebuchadnezzar depended mainly on starving it into surrender; and w e cannot withhold a measure of admiration for a body of defenders who, in spite of the steadi ly decreasing food supply and the ravages of pestilence, held the city for a year and a half. 5. His Fate: During this time Jeremiah's counsel was well known: the counsel of surrender, and the promise that so they could save their lives (Jeremiah 21:9 ; 38:2). It was for this, indeed, that he was imprisoned, on the plea that he "weakened the h ands" of the defenders; and it was due to the mercy of a foreign slave that he did not suffe r death (Jeremiah 38:7-9). At length in the 11th year of Zedekiah's reign, just as the suppl y of food in the city was exhausted, the Chaldean army effected a breach in the wall, and th e king of Babylon with his high officials came in and sat in the middle gate. Zedekiah and hi s men of war, seeing this, fled by night, taking the ill-advised route by the road to Jericho ; were pursued and captured in the plains of the Jordan; and Zedekiah was brought before th e king of Babylon at Riblah. After putting to death Zedekiah's sons and the nobles of Judah b efore his eyes, the king of Babylon then put out the eyes of Zedekiah and carried him captiv e to Babylon, where, it is uncertain how long after, he died. Jeremiah had prophesied that h e would die in peace and have a state mourning (Jeremiah 34:4,5); Ezekiel's prophecy of his d oom is enigmatic: "I will bring him to Babylon to the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he no t see it, though he shall die there" (Ezekiel 12:13). 6. Doom of the Nation: The cruelly devised humiliation of the king was only an episode in the tragic doom of the cit y and nation. Nebuchadnezzar was not minded to leave so stubborn and treacherous a fortress o n his path of conquest toward Egypt. A month after the event at Riblah his deputy, Nebuzarada n, entered upon the reduction of the city: burning the temple and all the principal houses, breaking down the walls, carrying away the t emple treasures still unpillaged, including the bronze work which was broken into scrap metal , and deporting the people who were left after the desperate resistance and those who had vol untarily surrendered. The religious and state officials were taken to Riblah and put to death . "So," the historian concludes, "Judah was carried away captive out of his land" (Jeremiah 5 2:27). This was in 586 BC. This, however, was only the political date of the Babylonian exile , the retributive limit for those leavings of Israel who for 11 years had played an insincer e game of administration and failed. The prophetic date, from which Ezekiel reckons the year s of exile, and from which the prophetic eye is kept on the fortunes and character of the peo ple who are to be redeemed, was 597 BC, when Jehoiachin's long imprisonment began and when th e flower of Israel, transplanted to a foreign home, began its term of submission to the wor d and will of Yahweh. It was this saving element in Israel who still had a recognized king an d a promised future. By both Jeremiah and Ezekiel, Zedekiah was regarded not as Yahweh's anoi nted but as the one whom Nebuchadnezzar "had made king" (Jeremiah 37:1; Ezekiel 17:16), "th e king that sitteth upon the throne of David" (Jeremiah 29:16). The real last king of Judah w as Jehoiachin; Ezekiel's title for Zedekiah is "prince" (Ezekiel 12:10). MATTANIAH mat-a-ni'-a (mattanyaha, "gift of Yah"): (1) King Zedekiah's original name, but changed by Nebuchadnezzar when he made him king over J udah instead of his nephew Jehoiachin (2 Kings 24:17).

QUICK SKETCH By the time Zedekiah was put on the throne by the king of Babylon, all of the Near East was i n turmoil as Egypt and Babylon fought for control. As one or the other showed signs of weakne ss, countries which were tributary revolted, usually with the aid of the other major party. T he result was all of Judah was impoverished, as was most of Transjordan, and most likely, Pho enicia. Judah had backslid from Jehovah, as there were many foreign influences in power in Je rusalem. Idolatry was common throughout the land, and the prophetic party, represented by th e prophet Jeremiah, had little sway with either the kings nor the peasantry. Zedekiah remained loyal to Nebuchadnezzar for the first of his reign, even visiting Babylon t o affirm his fealty. However, representatives from all the neighboring countries began appear ing in Jerusalem, putting together a coalition against Babylon, again with the tacit approva l of Egypt. In the fourth year of his reign, Zedekiah rebelled along with all of the Near Eas t and Egypt. The army of Nebuchadnezzar was forced to retreat, regroup, and then the movemen t south became overwhelming. Egypt pulled back, and Jerusalem was put under siege. After onl y four months the food in Jerusalem gave out, and Zedekiah, with his family and the fightin g men slipped out one night, headed toward Jericho. Nebuchadnezzar’s army learned of the escape and pursued Zedekiah. He was captured, as he ha d been abandoned by his fighting men, and was brought into the presence of the king of Babylo n at Riblah, just north of Palestine. After a quick trial, he was made to watch as his sons w ere each killed, then his eyes were put out. He was put in chains, taken to Babylon, and hel d in prison until his death. With Zedekiah deposed from the throne the kingdom of Judaea los t its independence. However, the ancestral line of David continues through Zedekiah’s predece ssor, Jehoiachin, who was also prisoner in Babylon, but is later released. (http://www.ancientroute.com/people/Zedekiah.htm) Zedekiah (Mattaniah) (II Chronicles 36:11-14) After taking Jehoiachin captive, Nebuchadnezzar made Zedekiah, also a son of Josiah, king. Ze dekiah was a weak king who sometimes persecuted Jeremiah. At other times, he gave his officia ls a free hand to abuse the prophet. Zedekiah often looked to Egypt for help, a strategy tha t Jeremiah warned was contrary to the LORD’s will. Zedekiah turned to the LORD as a last reso rt "magic weapon." In chapter 21 we hear Zedekiah’s request to Jeremiah, "Inquire now of th e LORD for us because Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon is attacking us. Perhaps the LORD will p erform wonders for us as in times past so that he will withdraw from us," (v.2). He was final ly taken prisoner in 587/586 B.C. by the Babylonians who killed his sons in front of him befo re putting out his eyes. Zedekiah spent the remaining years of his life in a Babylonian priso n. (http://www.wls.wels.net/Publications/Theologia/vol2no1/ToppeJeremiah/ToppeJeremiah.htm) Zedekiah.

The two previous kings had rebelle d against Babylon's rule, and so Nebuchadnezzar extracted from Zedekiah a binding oath to th e LORD that he would run his domain in proper submission to Babylon's empire. To show his com mand over Judah's king, Nebuchadnezzar changed the new king's name from Mattaniah to Zedekiah . The prophet Jeremiah, speaking on behalf of the LORD, repeatedly rebuked Zedekiah's ongoing p reparations for rebellion and breaking free from Babylonian power, reminding him that the LOR D had brought the Babylonian invasion because of the sins of the Israelites. Other prophets c ommunicated this same message from the LORD. Zedekiah and his staff responded by jailing Jere miah for his supposedly treasonous words.1 Powerless and without resources - everything of va lue, and every educated or capable person, having been taken to Babylon - and facing the worl d-class Babylonian political and military engine, Zedekiah nonetheless prepared his puny rebe llion. In his ninth year as king, Zedekiah severed relations with Babylon. King Nebuchadnezzar was f urious. He personally led his army in a siege against Jerusalem. As the confrontation progres sed, Jeremiah repeatedly communicated the LORD's word that resistance would result in disaste r, but if Zedekiah would surrender, all lives would be saved.2 Zedekiah listened, but stubbor nly maintained his hopeless rebellion. The siege lasted three summers. At its end, when the food supply was exhausted, the cowardl y Zedekiah gathered his army, opened the city gate, and made a night-time escape. Babylon's army made chase, and soon captured Zedekiah. Tried for treason, his sentence was cr uel. Zedekiah's sons and best friends were killed, right before his eyes - and then his eye s were gouged out. He was taken to Babylon to die of old age in prison, thereby unwillingly f ulfilling the prophecy3 that he would go to Babylon and die there, but never see it. Nebuchadnezzar had thus squashed rebellion in Judah three times, and he would allow no more . He directed his army to break down completely the protective wall surrounding Jerusalem. Th ey burned the king's palace, the LORD's temple, and many other important buildings to the gro und. Everything of value was taken to Babylon. They deported the city's entire population, pl us anyone from the countryside who wanted to surrender. Only some of the poorest and most pow erless people were left to work the land, so it wouldn't become overgrown and useless. The kingdom of Judah was gone, never to return. The people, however, did return - that is, th eir descendents returned - 70 years later, as the prophet Jeremiah had said would happen.4 Where to read Zedekiah's story: 2 Kings 24:17 - 25:21; 2 Chronicles 36:11-20 Notes: 1 Jeremiah 32:3 2 Jeremiah 38:2-3, 17-18 3 Ezekiel 12:13 4 Jeremiah 25:11, 29:10 1 (http://www.geocities.com/thekingsofisrael/biography_Zedekiah.html)
