Jehoiakim was king of Judah during the prophet Jeremiah's ministry and resisted God's word delivered through his messenger, even burning a scroll containing Jeremiah's prophecies. He reigned as Babylon's vassal before rebelling, ultimately bringing judgment upon himself and Jerusalem as Nebuchadnezzar's forces besieged the city.
