Bible Comments

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

And I will bring again to this place Jeconiah - not necessarily implying that Hananiah wished Zedekiah to be superseded by Jeconiah. The main point intended was, that the restoration from Babylon should be complete. But, doubtless the false prophet foretold Jeconiah's return (2 Kings 24:12-15), to ingratiate himself with the populace, with whom Jeconiah was a favourite (Jeremiah 22:24, note).
