SEV Biblia, Chapter 24:1
¶ En su tiempo subió Nabucodonosor rey de Babilonia, al cual sirvió Joacim tres años; y volvió, y se rebeló contra él.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 24:1
Verse 1. Nebuchadnezzar] This man, so famous in the writings of the prophets, was son of Nabopolassar. He was sent by his father against the rulers of several provinces that had revolted; and he took Carchemish, and all that belonged to the Egyptians, from the Euphrates to the Nile. Jehoiakim, who was tributary to Nechoh king of Egypt, he attacked and reduced; and obliged to become tributary to Babylon. At the end of three years he revolted; and then a mixed army, of Chaldeans, Syrians, Moabites, and Ammonites, was sent against him, who ravaged the country, and took three thousand and twenty-three prisoners, whom they brought to Babylon, Jer. lii. 28.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 1. In his days Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon came up , etc.] 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 f305 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.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-7 - If Jehoiakim had served the Lord, he had not been servant to Nebuchadnezzar. If he had been content with his servitude, and true to his word, his condition had been no worse; but, rebelling agains Babylon, he plunged himself into more trouble. See what need nation have to lament the sins of their fathers, lest they smart for them Threatenings will be fulfilled as certainly as promises, if the sinner's repentance prevent not. (2Ki 24:8-20)
