Jeremiah 28:4 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Only it is admirable, that being so nigh the king's court he should mention the return of Jehoiachin, or Jeconiah, which, had it been true, must have been to the prejudice of Zedekiah, for Jeconiah was the right heir to the crown, being the son of Jehoiakim. Zedekiah his uncle was put in by the conqueror, but it is probable he saw Jehoiachin was more acceptable to the people, and that the faction for the nephew was greater than for the uncle. False teachers are always on the greatest side, either for number or for power.

Jeremiah 28:4

4 And I will bring again to this place Jeconiah the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah, with all the captivesa of Judah, that went into Babylon, saith the LORD: for I will break the yoke of the king of Babylon.
