From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

I will make thee as a signet -God reverses to Zerubbabel the sentence on Jeconiah for his impiety. To Jeconiah He had saidJeremiah 22:24, “though he were the signet upon My right hand, yet would I pluck thee thence; and I will give thee into the hand of them that seek thy life.” The signet was very precious to its owner, never parted with, or only to those to whom authority was delegated (as by Pharaoh to JosephGenesis 41:42, or by Ahasuerus to HamanEsther 3:10and then to MordecaiEsther 8:2.); through it his will was expressed. Hence, the spouse in the Canticles says,Song of Solomon 8:6.
