From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Jehoiachin       succeeded his father Jehoiakin (B.C. 599) when only eight years       of age, and reigned for one hundred days (2 Chr. 36:9). He is       also called Jeconiah (Jer. 24:1; 27:20, etc.), and Coniah       (22:24; 37:1). He was succeeded by his uncle, Mattaniah =       Zedekiah (q.v.). He was the last direct heir to the Jewish       crown. He was carried captive to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar,       along with the flower of the nobility, all the leading men in       Jerusalem, and a great body of the general population, some       thirteen thousand in all (2 Kings 24:12-16; Jer. 52:28). After       an imprisonment of thirty-seven years (Jer. 52:31, 33), he was       liberated by Evil-merodach, and permitted to occupy a place in       the king's household and sit at his table, receiving "every day       a portion until the day of his death, all the days of his life"       (52:32-34).
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Jehoiakim       he whom Jehovah has set up, the second son of Josiah, and       eighteenth king of Judah, which he ruled over for eleven years       (B.C. 610-599). His original name was Eliakim (q.v.).                On the death of his father his younger brother Jehoahaz       (=Shallum, Jer. 22:11), who favoured the Chaldeans against the       Egyptians, was made king by the people; but the king of Egypt,       Pharaoh-necho, invaded the land and deposed Jehoahaz (2 Kings       23:33, 34; Jer. 22:10-12), setting Eliakim on the throne in his       stead, and changing his name to Jehoiakim.                After this the king of Egypt took no part in Jewish politics,       having been defeated by the Chaldeans at Carchemish (2 Kings       24:7; Jer. 46:2). Palestine was now invaded and conquered by       Nebuchadnezzar. Jehoiakim was taken prisoner and carried captive       to Babylon (2 Chr. 36:6, 7). It was at this time that Daniel       also and his three companions were taken captive to Babylon       (Dan. 1:1, 2).                Nebuchadnezzar reinstated Jehoiakim on his throne, but treated       him as a vassal king. In the year after this, Jeremiah caused       his prophecies to be read by Baruch in the court of the temple.       Jehoiakim, hearing of this, had them also read in the royal       palace before himself. The words displeased him, and taking the       roll from the hands of Baruch he cut it in pieces and threw it       into the fire (Jer. 36:23). During his disastrous reign there       was a return to the old idolatry and corruption of the days of       Manasseh.                After three years of subjection to Babylon, Jehoiakim withheld       his tribute and threw off the yoke (2 Kings 24:1), hoping to       make himself independent. Nebuchadnezzar sent bands of       Chaldeans, Syrians, and Ammonites (2 Kings 24:2) to chastise his       rebellious vassal. They cruelly harassed the whole country       (comp. Jer. 49:1-6). The king came to a violent death, and his       body having been thrown over the wall of Jerusalem, to convince       the beseieging army that he was dead, after having been dragged       away, was buried beyond the gates of Jerusalem "with the burial       of an ass," B.C. 599 (Jer. 22:18, 19; 36:30). Nebuchadnezzar       placed his son Jehoiachin on the throne, wishing still to retain       the kingdom of Judah as tributary to him.
