36:29-31 To die without heirs or a decent burial was to suffer the worst imaginable fate (see 22:19; Eccl 6:3). Jehoiakim’s son Jehoiachin ruled for just three months. Unlike his father, Jehoiachin took Jeremiah’s warning seriously and surrendered to the Babylonians, who took him and others to Babylon as captives (Jer 22:24-30; 2 Kgs 24:8-16).
