Joãɠâ¤Chim [1]

Jo Ä chim

( Ι᾿Ωακείμ ), a Graecized form of the Heb. name Jehoiakim and applied in the Apocrypha to

1. The king of Judah, son of Josiah ( Baruch 1:3).

2. A priest ( Ἱερεύς , A.V. "high priest"), said to be son of Hilkiah at the time of the burning of Jerusalem by the Babylonians ( Baruch 1:7). (See Joacim), 4. As no such pontiff occurs at this time, (See High Priest), the person intended may perhaps have been not the successor, but only a junior son of Hilkiah if, indeed, the whole narrative be not spurious. (See Baruch).
