Don't really get any great significance out of these two chapters. Nebuchadnezzar appointed someone to oversee Judah, but someone else kills him and then flees to Egypt for fear of Nebuchadnezzar. Jeremiah doesn't really play any role. The people left in Judah are joined by other Jews from surrounding country, who presumably hear that they can join in getting a great harvest from all the lands that have been vacated by those brought into exile.
God's will marches on.
