Reading the Bible in Historical Sequence Part 8Exemplo
600 BC Nebuchadnezzar with Chaldean, Syrian, Moabite and Ammonite forces, storms and destroys much of Judah. Jehoiakim is killed and given the ‘burial of an ass’ as predicted (Jeremiah 22:19). His son Jehoiachin is made king but in three months is taken to Babylon with thousands of skilled Jews and much treasure. Zedekiah is now appointed king. Jeremiah pronounces severe punishment against proud Moab for their years of enmity.
Note Jeremiah 22:20–23: The reference to Lebanon metaphorically refers to Jerusalem with all its prestigious buildings built with Lebanon cedar timber.
