Commentary— Tyndale Open Study Notes (plain English)
36:9-10 The Chronicler limits his record of Jehoiachin’s short reign to his exile and payment of tribute from the Temple instruments. The capture of Jehoiachin is described in the Babylonian Chronicle: “In the seventh year (of Nebuchadnezzar), the month of Kislev, the king of Akkad mustered his troops, marched to [the land west of the Jordan], and encamped against the city of Judah, and on the second day of the month of Adar he seized the city and captured the king.” Jehoiachin was thus taken captive on March 16, 597 BC. He was taken to Babylon about a month later. • Jehoiachin remained a captive in Babylon for thirty-seven years (see 2 Kgs 25:27; Jer 52:31).
