📚 Contexto Histórico
During the Babylonian conquest of Judah in the 6th century BC, King Nebuchadnezzar had already defeated and exiled King Jehoiachin, who was the rightful heir, as part of his campaign to dominate the region. To solidify his control, Nebuchadnezzar appointed Mattaniah, Jehoiachin's uncle, as a puppet king and renamed him Zedekiah, a practice that symbolized the Babylonians' authority over conquered peoples. This event fits into the broader biblical narrative of Judah's downfall due to repeated unfaithfulness to God's covenant, as chronicled in the books of Kings.
