THE MESSAGE
"On that Day I'll replace Shebna. I will call my servant Eliakim son of Hilkiah. I'll dress him in your robe. I'll put your belt on him. I'll give him your authority. He'll be a father-leader to Jerusalem and the government of Judah. I'll give him the key of the Davidic heritage. He'll have the run of the place—open any door and keep it open, lock any door and keep it locked. I'll pound him like a nail into a solid wall. He'll secure the Davidic tradition. Everything will hang on him—not only the fate of Davidic descendants but also the detailed daily operations of the house, including cups and cutlery.

Contextual Overview

¹⁵Thus says Lord Yahweh of hosts,"Come, go to this steward,To Shebna, who is in charge of the royal household, ¹⁶‘What right do you have here,And whom do you have here,That you have hewn a tomb for yourself here,You who hew a tomb on the height,You who carve a dwelling place for yourself in the cliff? ¹⁷Behold, Yahweh is about to hurl you headlong, O man.And He is about to grasp you firmly ¹⁸And He will surely roll you tightly like a ball,To be cast into a vast country;There you will die,And there your glorious chariots will be,You disgrace of your master's house.' ¹⁹I will push you out of your office,And I will pull you down from your station. ²⁰Then it will be in that day,That I will summon My servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah, ²¹And I will clothe him with your tunicAnd tie your sash securely about him.I will give your authority into his hand,And he will become a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah. ²²Then I will set the key of the house of David on his shoulder,When he opens no one will shut,When he shuts no one will open. ²³I will drive him like a peg in a firm place,And he will become a throne of glory to his father's house. ²⁴So they will hang on him all the glory of his father's house, offspring and issue, all the least of vessels, from bowls to all the jars.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And it shall come to pass in that day,.... At the same time that Shebna was deposed from his high station:

that I will call my servant Eliakim, the son of Hilkiah; whom Kimchi thinks was the same with Azariah the son of Hilkiah, who might have two names, and was a ruler over the house of God in the times of Hezekiah, 1 Chronicles 6:13 this man, by the character given him, was a good man, a faithful, diligent, and constant servant of the Lord, and therefore he delighted to raise him to great honour and dignity: he did not seek great things for himself, nor did he thrust himself into the office, but the Lord called him to it in his providence, and put him into it; he did, as Kimchi observes, put it into the heart of Hezekiah to appoint him governor in the room of Shebna. This man was a type of Christ; his name agrees with him which signifies, "my God will raise up"; that is, the dead by him, 1 Corinthians 6:14 and so does the character of a servant, frequently given to Christ in this book; see

Isaiah 42:1 nor did Christ take any office to himself, but was called unto it by his Father, Hebrews 5:4.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

My servant Eliakim - A man who will be faithful to me; who will be trustworthy, and to whom the interests of the city may be safely confided; a man who will not seek to betray it into the hands of the enemy. Of Eliakim we know nothing more than what is stated here, and in Isaiah 36:0. From that account it appears that he was prefect of the palace; that he was employed in a negotiation with the leader of the army of the Assyrians; and that he was in all things faithful to the trust reposed in him.

The son of Hilkiah - Kimchi supposes that this was the same as Azariah the son of Hilkiah, who might have had two names, and who was a ruler over the house of God in the time of Hezekiah 1 Chronicles 6:13.
