Jeremiah 44:30

Jer 44:30 Thus saith the LORD; Behold, I will give Pharaohhophra king of Egypt into the hand of his enemies, and into the hand of them that seek his life; as I gave Zedekiah king of Judah into the hand of Nebuchadrezzar king of Babylon, his enemy, and that sought his life.

Ver. 30. Behold, I will give Pharaohhophra. ] Called also Vaphres, and by Herodotus, Apries, being nephew to Necho, who slew Josiah. A very proud prince he saith Apries was, slain by Amasis, who succeeded him. But others gather from this text, and from Ezekiel 29:19 ; Ezekiel 31:11 ; Ezekiel 31:15 ; Ezekiel 31:18 , that he was slain by Nebuchadnezzar. Josephus a also and Jerome say as much. b
