He became king of Judah at the age of eighteen and reigned for only three months before being deposed by King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. Jeconiah was taken into Babylonian captivity along with many of the nobility and skilled workers of Judah. His reign marked the beginning of the Babylonian Exile, a significant event in Jewish history. Despite his short reign, Jeconiah's lineage is important as he is listed in the genealogy of Jesus Christ in the New Testament.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>the same as <a href="/hebrew/3078.htm">Yehoyakin</a>, q.v.<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Jeconiah (7).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">יְכוֺנְיָה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> (<font class="hebrew2">׳</font><font class="hebrew2">י</font> <em>is firm, enduring</em>); — <a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/27-20.htm">Jeremiah 27:20</a> = <font class="hebrew2">יְכָנְ֫יָהוּ</font> <a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/24-1.htm">Jeremiah 24:1</a> = <font class="hebrew2">יְכָנְיָה</font> <a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/28-4.htm">Jeremiah 28:4</a>; <a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/29-2.htm">Jeremiah 29:2</a>; <a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/3-16.htm">1 Chronicles 3:16,17</a>; <a href="/interlinear/esther/2-6.htm">Esther 2:6</a> = <font class="hebrew2">כָּנְיָ֫הוּ</font> <a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/22-24.htm">Jeremiah 22:24,28</a>; <a href="/interlinear/jeremiah/37-1.htm">Jeremiah 37:1</a> (<font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Ιεχονιας</font> throughout), all of last king but one of Judah, see <font class="hebrew2">יְהוֺיָכִין</font> above <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Jeconiah <p>And Ykonyahuw {yek-on-yaw'-hoo}; or (Jereremiah 27:20) Ykownyah {yek-o-neh-yaw'}; from <a href="/hebrew/3559.htm">kuwn</a> and <a href="/hebrew/3050.htm">Yahh</a>; Jah will establish; Jekonjah, a Jewish king -- Jeconiah.
