36:30 Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning Jehoiakim king of Judah; He shall have {q} none to sit upon the throne of David: and his {r} dead body shall be cast out in the day to the heat, and in the night to the frost.
(q) Though Jehoiachin his son succeeded him, yet because he reigned but three months, it was esteemed as no reign.
(r) Read Geneva Jer 22:19
36:30 None to sit - That is, none that shall be king any considerable time. Jeconiah his son was set up, but kept his throne but three months.
36:20-32 Those who despise the word of God, will soon show, as this king did, that they hate it; and, like him, they would wish it destroyed. See what enmity there is against God in the carnal mind, and wonder at his patience. The princes showed some concern, till they saw how light the king made of it. Beware of making light of God's word!
