22:15-16 If Jehoiakim wanted plenty to eat and drink, he did not have to resort to corruption and oppression. Compared with his prosperous father, Josiah, Jehoiakim was not a great king. Josiah, by contrast, had been just and right in all his dealings, a servant of God and his people. Because he had lived up to the requirements of the ancient covenant, God blessed him.
