ZEDEKIAH'S REIGN. (II Chronicles 36:11-21)
Zedekiah—Nebuchadnezzar appointed him. His name, originally Mattaniah, was, according to the custom of Oriental conquerors, changed into Zedekiah. Though the son of Josiah (I Chronicles 3:15; Jeremiah 1:2-3; Jeremiah 37:1), he is called the brother of Jehoiachin (II Chronicles 36:10), that is, according to the latitude of Hebrew style in words expressing affinity, his relative or kinsman (see II Kings 24:18; 2Ki. 25:1-21).
