📚 Contexto Histórico
This occurred around 609 BC after King Josiah died in battle against Pharaoh Necho at Megiddo. The people of Judah had chosen Jehoahaz as their king, but after just three months, the victorious Egyptian pharaoh removed him and installed his brother as a puppet ruler instead. Changing the king's name from Eliakim to Jehoiakim was a common practice to show dominance and assert authority over vassal kingdoms.
