- Jeremiah 21:2 The reader will no doubt notice that the name of the Babylonian ruler Nebuchadnezzar is frequently spelled Nebuchadrezzar in the book of Jeremiah, as well as on several occasions in the book of Ezekiel (Ezek. 26:7; 29:18-19; 30:10, 24). “The two forms represent different Hebrew methods of reproducing the name” (John D. Davis, A Dictionary of the Bible).
