ELIAKIM (‘God will establish’).—1. The son of Hilkiah, he who was ‘over the household’ of king Hezekiah, and one of the three who represented the king during the interview with Sennacherib’s emissaries (2Ki_18:18, Isa_36:3). In Isa_22:20-24 (Isa_22:25 seems to be out of place) he is contrasted favourably with his predecessor Shebnah (who is still in office), and the prophet prophesies that Eliakim shall be a ‘father’ in the land. 2. The name of king Josiah’s son, who reigned after him; Pharaoh-necho changed his name to Jehoiakim (2Ki_23:34). 3. In Neh_12:41 a priest of this name is mentioned as one among those who assisted at the ceremony of the dedication of the wall. 4. The son of Abind (Mat_1:13). 5. The son of Melea (Luk_3:30). The last two occur in the genealogies of our Lord.

1. Hilkiah's son, over Hezekiah's household (Isa_36:3). As Joseph over Pharaoh's palace, Azrikam "governor of Ahaz' house" (2Ch_28:7); chamberlain, treasurer, prefect of the palace (Gen_41:40), chief minister. Successor of Shebna, whose deposition for his pride was foretold (Isa_22:15-20). Elevated at the time of the Assyrian invasion as the one most adapted to meet such a crisis. Same as Azariah son of Hilkiah (1Ch_6:13); the same man often bearing two names (Kimchi). God calls him "My servant": a pious patriot (compare 2Ki_18:37; 2Ki_19:1-5). A "father to (counseling, befriending, and defending) the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the inhabitants of Judah."
Type of Messiah: "the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder (the key hung from the kerchief on the shoulder as emblem of his office, or figuratively for sustaining the government on his shoulder); so he shall open and none shall shut:, and he shall shut and none shall open;" i.e., all access to the royal house shall be through him. Antitypically, "the government shall be upon Messiah's shoulder" (Isa_9:6; Isa_22:22); He shuts or opens at will the access to the heavenly mansion (Rev_3:7), He has the keys also of hell (the grave) and death (Rev_1:18).
As Eliakim supplanted Shebna, so Christ the Heir of David's throne shall supplant all the stewards who abuse their trust in God's spiritual house, the church and the world (hereafter to become coextensive with the church): Heb_3:2-6. For the rest of Isaiah's imagery as to Eliakim, (See NAIL; SHEBNA, when degraded, was "scribe" (i.e. secretary, remembrancer, keeping the king informed on important facts, historiographer) under Eliakim (2Ki_18:37), who became "treasurer," or as Hebrew coken (Isa_22:15) from caakan, "to dwell" means, intimate friend of the king, dwelling on familiar terms, and "steward of the provisions" (compare 1Ch_27:33).
2. King JEHOIAKIM'S original name.
3. Neh_12:41.
4. Luk_3:26; Mat_1:13.
5. Luk_3:30-31.

Eli'akim. (raised up by God).
1. Son of Hilkiah, master of Hezekiah's household, ("over the house," as), Isa_36:3. 2Ki_18:18; 2Ki_18:26; 2Ki_18:37. (B.C. 713). Eliakim was a good man, as appears by the title emphatically applied to him by God, "my servant Eliakim," Isa_22:20, and also in the discharge of the duties of his high station, in which he acted as a "father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah." Isa_22:21.
2. The original name of Jehoiakim, king of Judah. 2Ki_23:34; 2Ch_36:4.
3. A priest, in the days of Nehemiah, who assisted at the dedication of the new wall of Jerusalem. Neh_12:41. (B.C. 446).
4. Eldest son of Abiud or Judah; brother of Joseph, and father of Azor. Mat_1:13.

ē̇-lı̄?a-kim (אליקים, 'elyāḳı̄m; Ἐλιακείμ, Eliakeı́m, ?God sets up?):
(1) The son of Hilkiah who succeeded Shebna as gorvernor of the palace and ?grand vizier? under Hezekiah (Isa_22:20). The functions of his office are seen from the oracle of Isaiah in which Shebna is deposed and Eliakim set in his place (Isa_22:15). He is the ?treasurer? (the Revised Version, margin ?steward?), and is ?over the house? (Isa_22:15). At his installation he is clothed with a robe and girdle, the insignia of his office, and, having the government committed into his hand, is the ?father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah? (Isa_22:21). The key of the house of David is laid on his shoulder, and he alone has power to open and shut, this being symbolic of his absolute authority as the king's representative (Isa_22:22).
One of Solomon's officials is the first mentioned as occupying this position (1Ki_4:6), and this office was continued in both the Northern and Southern Kingdom (1Ki_16:9; 1Ki_18:3; 2Ki_10:5; 2Ki_15:5). Its importance is seen from the fact that after Azariah was smitten with leprosy, Jotham his heir ?was over the household, judging the people of the land? (2Ki_15:5).
When Sennacherib sent an army against Jerusalem in 701, Eliskim was one of these Jewish princes who held on behalf of Hezekiah a parley with the Assyrian officers (2Ki_18:18, 2Ki_18:26, 2Ki_18:37; Isa_36:3, Isa_36:11, Isa_36:22). As a result of the invader's threats, he was sent by Hezekiah in sackcloth to Isaiah, entreating his prayers to Yahweh on behalf of Jerusalem (2Ki_19:2; Isa_37:2).
(2) The original name of Jehoiakim, the son of Josiah, whom Pharaoh-necoh made king of Judah (2Ki_23:34; 2Ch_36:4).
(3) A priest who assisted at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem, rebuilt after his return from Babylon (Neh_12:41).
(4) A grandson of Zerubbabel and ancestor of Jesus (Mat_1:13).
(5) An ancestor of Jesus (Luk_3:30).
