Jehoiakim in Wikipedia
(Hebrew: יְהוֹיָקִים, Modern Tiberian "he whom Jehovah has set
up", also sometimes spelled Jehoikim; Greek: Ιωακιμ; Latin:
Joakim), c. 635-597 BC, reign 608-597 BC, was king of Judah.
He was the second son of king Josiah by Zebidah the daughter
of Pedaiah of Rumah.[1] His birth name was Eliakim (Hebrew:
אֶלְיָקִים, Modern {{{2}}} Tiberian {{{3}}}; Greek: Ελιακιμ;
Latin: Eliakim).
On Josiah's death, Jehoiakim's younger brother Jehoahaz (or
Shallum) was proclaimed king, but after three months (608 BC)
pharaoh Necho II deposed him and replaced him with the eldest
son, Eliakim,[2] who adopted the name Jehoiakim and became
king at the age of twenty-five [1] in the same year. In the
meantime, Jehoahaz was exiled to Egypt, where he died.[3]
Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he became king, and
reigned for eleven years to 598 BC [1][4] and was succeeded by
this son Jeconiah, (also known as Jehoiachin), who reigned for
only three months...
