Shealtiel
Shealtiel was the son of Jehoiachin, king of Judah. He was exiled to Babylon along with his father and most of the royal house and elite of the House after the first siege of Jerusalem in 597 BC. During the Babylonian captivity, Shealtiel was regarded as the second Exilarch (or king-in-exile), following his father.
