|
| And in the thirty-seventh year of the exile of Jehoi'achin king of Judah, in the twelfth month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, Evil-mero'dach king of Babylon, in the year that he began to reign, graciously freed Jehoi'achin king of Judah from prison; | Jehoiachin released from prison. 2Kgs.25.27-30 | Jr.52.31-34 |
| and he spoke kindly to him, and gave him a seat above the seats of the kings who were with him in Babylon. | |
| So Jehoi'achin put off his prison garments. And every day of his life he dined regularly at the king's table; | |
| and for his allowance, a regular allowance was given him by the king, every day a portion, as long as he lived. | |
