As for the rest of the acts of Jehoiakim, the abominations he committed, and all that was found against him, they are indeed written in the Book of the Kings of Israel and Judah. And his son Jehoiachin reigned in his place.

Explanation preview
This verse closes the account of Jehoiakim, whom the Egyptian king Neco had placed on Judah's throne and renamed. The Chronicler, writing for the returned exiles, sums up an eleven year reign that the chapter calls evil in the LORD's sight, and he points readers to the Book of the Kings of Israel and Judah for the fuller record.
