2 Reyes 24:1 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 24:1

In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up
Against Jerusalem; this was in the latter end of the third, or the beginning of the fourth of Jehoiakim's reign, and the first of Nebuchadnezzar, ( Jeremiah 25:1 ) ( 46:2 ) , when Jehoiakim was taken, but restored upon promise of subjection and obedience, and hostages given, at which time Daniel and his companions were carried captive, with some of the vessels of the temple; (See Gill on Daniel 1:1) (See Gill on Daniel 1:2)

and Jehoiakim became his servant three years:
which were the fifth, sixth, and seventh years of his reign:

then he turned and rebelled against him;
being encouraged by the king of Egypt, who promised to assist him against the king of Babylon; Nebuchadnezzar is the Nabocolasser in Ptolemy's canon; and Berosus F14 testifies, that seventy years before the Persian monarchy he made war against the Phoenicians and Jews, and it is from this time the seventy years' captivity is to be dated.

2 Reyes 24:1 In-Context

1 En los d铆as de Joacim subi贸 Nabucodonosor, rey de Babilonia, y Joacim fue su siervo por tres a帽os; despu茅s se levant贸 y se rebel贸 contra 茅l.
2 Y el SE脩OR envi贸 contra Joacim bandas de caldeos, bandas de arameos, bandas de moabitas y bandas de amonitas. Y las envi贸 contra Jud谩 para destruirla, conforme a la palabra que el SE脩OR hab铆a hablado por medio de sus siervos los profetas.
3 Ciertamente por mandato del SE脩OR sucedi贸 esto contra Jud谩 para quitarlos de su presencia, por los pecados de Manas茅s, por todo lo que hab铆a hecho,
4 y tambi茅n por la sangre inocente que derram贸, pues llen贸 a Jerusal茅n de sangre inocente, y el SE脩OR no quiso perdonar.
5 Los dem谩s hechos de Joacim y todo lo que hizo 驴no est谩n escritos en el libro de las Cr贸nicas de los reyes de Jud谩?
