Jeremiah - 34:6 Meaning

“Then Jeremiah the prophet spake all these words unto Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem,”

King James Version (KJV)

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

34:1-7 Zedekiah is told that the city shall be taken, and that he shall die a captive, but he shall die a natural death. It is better to live and die penitent in a prison, than to live and die impenitent in a palace.
