the first: Nebuchadnezzar was associated with his father Nabopollasar two years before the death of the latter; and from this time the Jewish computation of Nebuchadnezzar's reign begins; that is, from the end of the third year of Jehoiakim; and therefore, according to them, the fourth year of Jehoiakim was the first year of Nebuchadnezzar. But the Babylonians date the commencement of his reign two years later, that is, on the death of his father; which computation is followed by Daniel, who wrote in Chaldee.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the people of Judah,.... Not only in the city of Jerusalem, but in the whole land of Judea. This prophecy concerns them all; their repentance and reformation, to which they are exhorted; or their invasion, desolation, and captivity, with which they are threatened. Before the prophet was sent to the king of Judah only, Jeremiah 22:1; now to all the people:

in the fourth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah; in the latter part of the third, and beginning of the fourth year of his reign; see Daniel 1:1;

this [was] the first year of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon: in which he began to reign with his father, for he reigned two years with him; who is the Nabopolassar of Ptolemy. This was in the year of the world 3397, and before Christ 607, according to Bishop Usher f.

f Annales Vet. Test. p. 119.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The fourth year - See Daniel 1:1 note. This invasion of Judaea, in which Daniel was carried captive to Babylon, was according to the date of the years the fourth, but according to the actual time the third, year of the Jewish king. Nebuchadnezzar was not yet fully king, but associated with his father Nabopalassar.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

CHAPTER XXV

This chapter contains a summary of the judgments denounced by

Jeremiah against Judah, Babylon, and many other nations. It

begins with reproving the Jews for disobeying the calls of God

to repentance, 1-7;

on which account their captivity, with that of other

neighbouring nations, during seventy years, is foretold, 8-11.

At the expiration of that period, (computing from the invasion

of Nebuchadnezzar in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, to the

famous edict of the first year of Cyrus,) an end was to be put

to the Babylonian empire, 12-14.

All this is again declared by the emblem of that cup of wrath

which the prophet, as it should seem in a vision, tendered

to all the nations which he enumerates, 15-29.

And for farther confirmation, it is a third time repeated in a

very beautiful and elevated strain of poetry, 30-38.

The talent of diversifying the ideas, images, and language,

even when the subject is the same, or nearly so, appears no

where in such perfection as among the sacred poets.

NOTES ON CHAP. XXV

Verse Jeremiah 25:1. The word that came to Jeremiah - to the fourth year — This prophecy, we see, was delivered in the fourth year of Jehoiakim, and the chapter that contains it is utterly out of its place. It should be between chapters xxxv. (Jeremiah 35:0) and xxxvi (Jeremiah 36:0).

The defeat of the Egyptians by Nebuchadnezzar at Carchemish, and the subsequent taking of Jerusalem, occurred in this year, viz., the fourth year of Jehoiakim.

The first year of Nebuchadrezzar — This king was associated with his father two years before the death of the latter. The Jews reckon his reign from this time, and this was the first of those two years; but the Chaldeans date the commencement of his reign two years later, viz., at the death of his father.
