And he did [that which was] evil in the eyes of the Lord,…. Though we do not read of any idolatry he was guilty of; yet he was disobedient to the word of the Lord, and did not humble himself before Jeremiah the prophet of the Lord, that spoke in his name; and particularly he rebelled against the king of Babylon, and violated the oath he made to him, 2Ch 36:12;
according to all that Jehoiakim had done; an elder brother of his, who reigned after Josiah, and before Jehoiachin.

Zedekiah was one of Judah’s evil kings, in Yahweh’s estimation, like Jehoiakim (609-598 B.C.). Jehoiachin, Jehoiakim’s immediate successor, was also a wicked king, but the writer probably did not mention Jehoiachin because he only ruled for three months (cf. Jer 22:24-30).
