Юдейският цар Йоаким (609 – 598 пр.н.е), който отхвърля вавилонското господство след 601 г. пр.н.е., умира към края на годината (вероятно през декември) преди Навуходоносор да има възможност да отговори на това неподчинение.[3]
Цар на Юдея става Йехония (598 – 597 г. пр.н.е.), който е син на Йоаким.[4]
