Jeremiah 32:1
1In the tenth year that Zedekiah was ruling over Judah the Lord spoke to Jeremiah. ▼ ▼▼ The dating formulas indicate that the date was 588/87 b.c. Zedekiah had begun to reign in 598/97 and Nebuchadnezzar had begun to reign in 605/604 b.c. The dating of Nebuchadnezzar’s rule here includes the partial year before he was officially crowned on New Year’s day. See the translator’s note on 25:1 for the method of dating a king’s reign.
That was the same as the eighteenth year of Nebuchadnezzar.
