		It is probable that Neriglissar was a leading prince in the Babylonian court long before he seized the throne.
		Neriglissar took pride in the adornment of Babylon and the beautifying of its temples.
		Neriglissar also repaired his palace, which had earlier been the residence of Nebuchadnezzar.

	Neriglissar
		Nebuchadnezzar died in 562 and was succeeded in by his son Amel-Marduk, who was almost immediately murdered and replaced by his brother-in-law Neriglissar, who is probably identical to an officer of Nebuchadnezzar known from the Bible (Jeremiah 39.13) and had maried princess Kasšaya.
		The new king invaded Anatolia, was victorious in Cilicia, and -according to Chronicle 6- even crossed the Taurus in 557/556.
		He was succeeded by his son Labaši-Marduk, who was immediately removed by a coup d'état by a powerful Babylonian nobleman named Belshazzar and several officers.

	Babylonian Chronology - How Reliable?
		So, too, for Neriglissar, said to be the successor of Evil-merodach, only one strictly historical tablet has come to light, and it is dated in his third year as king.
		How far within the reign of Ashurbanipal the life of Nabonidus’ mother (or grandmother) began is not stated, so that we are left in the dark as to the commencement and the close of the "104 happy years." Nor is there any information as to the lengths of the reigns of Ashur-etillu-ilani, Nabopolassar and Evil-merodach.
		It will be noted, too, that the conjectured numbers of years, inserted by modern historians on the basis of Ptolemy’s canon, when added to the "6th year of Nabonidus," give a total of 100 or 101 years, and not the 104 years mentioned in the text itself.

		Evilmerodach, who was infamous for his vices, reigned only two years, when he was deposed and put to death by his own relations, and Neriglissar, his sister’s husband, ascended the throne.
		The royal line, whose throne had been usurped by Neriglissar, was then restored in the person of Belshazzar, one of the descendents of Nebuchadnezzar.
		Belshazzar was an effeminate and licentious monarch, indulging in luxury and dissipation, while the reins of government were entrusted to his mother, Nitocris.

		On Jeremiah 27:7, they say "Nebuchadnezzar had 4 successors...but Neriglissar and Labosoarchod were not in direct male line; so the prophecy held good for the son and grandson and the intermediate two were omitted.
		Neriglissar, according to Chaldean records, ruled after his father and was followed by his son, Labashi-Marduk.
		Nebuchadnezzar then attempted to justify his legitimacy by claiming that he was the first born and incorporated Neriglissar's years into his own so that he appeared to reign from his father's death.

		Labashi-Marduks regering van slechts een paar maanden (waarschijnlijk 2 of 3) werden tot het laatste jaar van Neriglissar gerekend (dat ook het troonsbestijgingsjaar van Nabonidus was).
		De laatste tekst van Evil-Merodachs regering is gedateerd V/17/2 (7 augustus 560 v.Chr.) en de vroegste tekst van Neriglissar is gedateerd V/21/tbj (11 augustus 560 v.Chr.) De dood van Evil-Merodach kan zodoende worden gefixeerd tussen 7 augustus en 11 augustus 560 v.Chr.
		Zelfs indien we aannemen dat hij slechts 20 jaar oud was toen hij voor het eerst als directeur werd genoemd, dan moet hij tenminste 90 jaar of ouder zijn geweest bij zijn dood.

		A reproof to men that they did not recognize God's will, which the very beasts acknowledged (compare Isa 1:3).
		Nebuchadnezzar had four successors—Evil-merodach, his son; Neriglissar, husband of Nebuchadnezzar's daughter; his son, Labosodarchod; and Naboned (with whom his son, Belshazzar, was joint king), son of Evil-merodach.
		But Neriglissar and Labosodarchod were not in the direct male line; so that the prophecy held good to "his son and his son's son," and the intermediate two are omitted.
