King Jehoiachin is Freed in Babylon
The Bible relates that King Jehoiachin was released by King Evil Merodach who succeeded his father Nebuchadnezzar II.
Jeremiah 52:31, 34
And in the thirty-seventh year of the exile of Jehoiachin king of Judah… Evil-merodach king of Babylon, in the year that he began to reign, graciously freed Jehoiachin king of Judah and brought him out of prison…. and for his (Jehoiachin’s) allowance, a regular allowance was given him by the king… until the day of his death, as long as he lived.
The rations for King Jehoiachin while he was imprisoned in Babylon are recorded on this tablet which reads:
“10 liters (of oil) to Jehoiachin, king of Judah, 2.5 liters for the five sons of the king of Judah...”
