Usage: Jojakim is a proper noun used as a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. It is the name of a notable biblical figure. Context: Jojakim, also spelled Jehoiakim, was a king of Judah who reigned from approximately 609 to 598 BCE. He was the son of Josiah and was placed on the throne by Pharaoh Necho II of Egypt after the deposition of his brother Jehoahaz. Jojakim's reign is marked by political turmoil and shifting allegiances between Egypt and Babylon. He is noted for his rebellion against Nebuchadnezzar II, which ultimately led to the Babylonian siege of Jerusalem. His reign is characterized by a return to idolatrous practices and a departure from the religious reforms instituted by his father, Josiah. Jojakim's actions and policies are criticized in the biblical narrative, and his reign is seen as a period of moral and spiritual decline for Judah. He is mentioned in several biblical passages, including 2 Kings 23:34-24:6 and 2 Chronicles 36:4-8, where his reign and its consequences are described. In the prophetic literature, Jojakim is often depicted as a negative example of leadership, as seen in Jeremiah 22:18-19, where his lack of justice and righteousness is condemned.
