Children: Jerahmeel, Malchiah

Easton’s Bible Dictionary

The king’s, the father of Jerahmeel, mentioned in Jer. 36:26. Some take this word as a common noun, “the king”, and understand that Jerahmeel was Jehoiakim’s son. Probably, however, it is to be taken as a proper name.

From M. G. Easton, Illustrated Bible Dictionary (1893), in the public domain.
