Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: - G2423 (Ἰεχονίας, Iechonias): The Greek form of Jeconiah, used in the genealogy of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew. Usage: The name Yekonyah means "Yahweh will establish" or "Yahweh has established." It is used as a proper name for a king of Judah, Jeconiah, who reigned during a tumultuous period in Judah's history. Cultural and Historical Background: Jeconiah, also known as Jehoiachin, was the son of Jehoiakim and the grandson of Josiah. He became king of Judah at the age of eighteen and reigned for only three months before being deposed by King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon. Jeconiah was taken into Babylonian captivity along with many of the nobility and skilled workers of Judah. His reign marked the beginning of the Babylonian Exile, a significant event in Jewish history. Despite his short reign, Jeconiah's lineage is important as he is listed in the genealogy of Jesus Christ in the New Testament. NAS Exhaustive Concordance Word Origin the same as Yehoyakin, q.v.
