Removed "and his body was thrown outside the city walls." which is possibly a poetic prophetic statement on the part Jeremiah, and probably also wishful thinking. Britannica says "...the circumstances of his death remain uncertain".[1] 2 Kings 24:6 says he "slept with his fathers," which the Jewish Virtual Library suggests indicate "...that, at least according to this source, he died a peaceful death."[2] 2 Kings 24:6 says "Jehoiakim rested with his ancestors, and his son Jehoiachin succeeded him as king." but doesn't mention chucking his carcass over the wall, and Kings rarely seems reticent.
