37:1–38:28 The focus now returns to Zedekiah, who succeeded his nephew Jehoiachin as king of Judah. These chapters record encounters between Zedekiah and Jeremiah that make plain Zedekiah’s inability to commit himself wholeheartedly to God’s word (cp. Deut 10:12-13). Zedekiah is a classic example of a “person with divided loyalty” (Jas 1:6-8). 37:1-2 These verses summarize Zedekiah’s reign and his entire response to the Lord’s messages through Jeremiah.
