* The young king Jehoiachin didn’t reign long before he was taken captive.

* His dad, Jehoiakim, was an evil king.

* Now his son was a displaced king living in enemy territory.

* The king of Babylon treated Jehoiachin well - he got new clothes and a seat at the king’s table.

* He was now a powerless man dining at the king’s table!

* This is what happens when you sin - you may come to a place of influence and authority but you’ll have no influence or authority in that place.
