19. burial of an ass —that is, he shall have the same burial as an ass would get, namely, he shall be left a prey for beasts and birds [JEROME]. This is not formally narrated. But :- states that "Nebuchadnezzar bound him in fetters to carry him to Babylon"; his treatment there is nowhere mentioned. The prophecy here, and in :- , harmonizes these two facts. He was slain by Nebuchadnezzar, who changed his purpose of taking him to Babylon, on the way thither, and left him unburied outside Jerusalem. :- , "Jehoiakim slept with his fathers," does not contradict this; it simply expresses his being gathered to his fathers by death, not his being buried with his fathers ( Psalms 49:19 ). The two phrases are found together, as expressing two distinct ideas ( 2 Kings 15:38 ; 2 Kings 16:20 ). return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-20" class="com-number"
