So far as the world knows, the last king to sit on that throne of David was Zedekiah of Judah,
but God promised David would never to want a man to sit on his thrown.
Then the king of Babylon slew the sons of Zedekiah in Riblah before his eyes:
also the king of Babylon slew all the nobles of Judah. Moreover he put out Zedekiah’s eyes,
and bound him with chains, to carry him to Babylon” (Jeremiah 39:1-7).
Then he put out the eyes of Zedekiah; and the king of Babylon bound him in chains,
and carried him to Babylon, and put him in prison till the day of his death.(Jeremiah 52:11)
1)king of Babylon slew all the sons of Zedekiah who were heirs to the throne of David.
2)slew all the nobles of Judah so as to leave no possible heirs for that throne.
3)putting out Zedekiah’s eyes, king who sat on David’s throne,taken to Babylon where he died in prison.
4)the throne of David ceased, with no possible heirs, or sons, to keep the dynasty alive.

-a former king of Judah was at that time in the dungeons of Babylon,
that we can find Jesus line from Jehoiakim,
-Jesus did not take posession of davids throne when here on earth the first time.
And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechonias begat Salathiel;
and Salathiel begat Zorobabel;
that Evil–merodach king of Babylon in the year that he began to reign
did lift up the head of Jehoiachin king of Judah out of prison;
“As I live, saith the Lord, though Coniah [Jeconiah] the son of Jehoiakim king of Judah
were the signet upon my right hand, yet would I pluck thee thence”! (Jeremiah 22:24)
Thus saith the Lord, Write ye this man childless, a man that shall not prosper in his days:
for no man of his seed shall prosper, sitting upon the throne of David,
and ruling any more in Judah.(22:30)
-to remove the crown of David from the ruling line of Pharez
and place it on the head of a son of Zarah.
a royal line straight from David had to remain in the area,
so Christ could be born of David’s seed yet several hundred years in the future.
-king of Persia made a decree giving him the governorship, not the crown of a king, And Zorobabel
to return to Jerusalem and rebuild the house of God, the temple, seventy years after the captivity.
Take him, and look well to him, and do him no harm; but do unto him even as he shall
say unto thee” (Jeremiah 39:11-12). So the captain of the guard gave him victuals and
a reward [money], and let him go” (Jeremiah 40:2-5)
