Contextual Overview
1 This is what the Lord said to me: "Go over and speak directly to the king of Judah. Say to him, 2 ‘Listen to this message from the Lord , you king of Judah, sitting on David's throne. Let your attendants and your people listen, too. 3 This is what the Lord says: Be fair-minded and just. Do what is right! Help those who have been robbed; rescue them from their oppressors. Quit your evil deeds! Do not mistreat foreigners, orphans, and widows. Stop murdering the innocent! 4 If you obey me, there will always be a descendant of David sitting on the throne here in Jerusalem. The king will ride through the palace gates in chariots and on horses, with his parade of attendants and subjects. 5 But if you refuse to pay attention to this warning, I swear by my own name, says the Lord , that this palace will become a pile of rubble.'" 6 Now this is what the Lord says concerning Judah's royal palace: "I love you as much as fruitful Gilead and the green forests of Lebanon. But I will turn you into a desert, with no one living within your walls. 7 I will call for wreckers, who will bring out their tools to dismantle you. They will tear out all your fine cedar beams and throw them on the fire. 8 "People from many nations will pass by the ruins of this city and say to one another, ‘Why did the Lord destroy such a great city?' 9 And the answer will be, ‘Because they violated their covenant with the Lord their God by worshiping other gods.'"

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Thus saith the Lord, go down to the house of the king of Judah,.... To the palace of Jehoiakim, who was now the reigning king; the prophet is bid to go down to it, because, as Kimchi thinks, he was now upon the mountain of the house, or in the temple, from whence to the king's house there was a descent:
and speak there this word; of prophecy, relating to the several kings hereafter mentioned. This prophecy was delivered some years before that in the preceding chapter, though it stands here. It is indeed by some thought to be repeated here on occasion of what is before said, and for the confirmation of it, putting in mind of what he had prophesied in former times: and they render the words, with which it begins, "thus hath the Lord said" x; so he said to me years ago; which agrees with what is now delivered.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Go down - i. e., from the temple to the kingâs house. Compare 2 Chronicles 23:20.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
CHAPTER XXII
This section of prophecy, extending to the end of the eighth
verse of the next chapter, is addressed to the king of Judah
and his people. It enjoins on them the practice of justice and
equity, as they would hope to prosper, 14;
but threatens them, in case of disobedience, with utter
destruction, 5-9.
The captivity of Shallum, the son of Josiah, is declared to be
irreversible, 10-12;
and the miserable and unlamented end of Jeconiah,
contemptuously called Coniah, is foretold, 13-19.
His family is threatened with the like captivity, and his seed
declared to be for ever excluded from the throne, 20-30.
NOTES ON CHAP. XXII
Verse Jeremiah 22:1. Go down to the house of the king of Judah, and speak there this word — This is supposed by Dahler to have been published in the first year of the reign of Zedekiah.
