Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
In the twelfth month - Answering nearly to our twenty-fifth of April, A.M. 3442.
Lifted up the head of Jehoiachin - This phrase is taken from Genesis 40:13. It is founded on the observation that those who are in sorrow hold down their heads, and when they are comforted, or the cause of their sorrow removed, they lift up their heads. The Hebrew phrase, lift up the head, signifies to comfort, cheer, make happy.
