2 Kings 24:5 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 24:5

Now the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim
In ( 2 Chronicles 36:8 ) , it is added, "his abominations, and that which was found in him": which besides his rebellion against the king of Babylon, and his shedding innocent blood, is interpreted of marks made in his body for superstitious and idolatrous purposes; so Lyra.

3 Surely at the mitzvah of the LORD came this on Yehudah, to remove them out of his sight, for the sins of Menashsheh, according to all that he did,
4 and also for the innocent blood that he shed; for he filled Yerushalayim with innocent blood: and the LORD would not pardon.
5 Now the rest of the acts of Yehoiakim, and all that he did, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Yehudah?
6 So Yehoiakim slept with his fathers; and Yehoiakim his son reigned in his place.
7 The king of Mitzrayim didn't come again out of his land any more; for the king of Bavel had taken, from the brook of Mitzrayim to the river Perat, all that pertained to the king of Mitzrayim.
