II KINGS

II Kings 16

1In the seventeenth year of Pekah, the son of Remaliah: Ahaz, the son of Jotham, reigned as king of Judah.
Isaiah 1:1, Isaiah 1:1, 2 Kings 15:38, 2 Kings 15:32, 2 Kings 15:33
2Ahaz was twenty years old when he had begun to reign, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what was pleasing in the sight of the Lord, his God, as his father David did.
1 Kings 9:4, 1 Kings 11:4, 1 Kings 11:8, 2 Chronicles 29:2, 2 Kings 22:2
3Instead, he walked in the way of the kings of Israel. Moreover, he even consecrated his son, making him pass through fire, in accord with the idols of the nations that the Lord destroyed before the sons of Israel.
Deuteronomy 12:31, Deuteronomy 12:31, Leviticus 18:21, Leviticus 18:21, 2 Kings 21:2
4Also, he was immolating victims, and burning incense, in the high places, and on the hills, and under every leafy tree.
Deuteronomy 12:2, Deuteronomy 12:2, 1 Kings 14:23, 1 Kings 14:23, Jeremiah 17:2
5Then Rezin, the king of Syria, and Pekah, the son of Remaliah, the king of Israel, ascended to do battle against Jerusalem. And they besieged Ahaz, but they were not able to overcome him.
2 Kings 15:37, 2 Kings 15:37, Isaiah 9:6, Isaiah 9:7, Isaiah 8:9
6At that time, Rezin, the king of Syria, restored Elath to Syria, and he expelled the Judeans from Elath. And the Idumeans went into Elath, and they have lived there, even to this day.
2 Kings 14:22, 2 Kings 14:22, 1 Kings 9:26, Deuteronomy 2:8, 2 Chronicles 26:2
7Then Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath-pileser, the king of the Assyrians, saying: “I am your servant, and I am your son. Ascend and accomplish my salvation from the hand of the king of Syria, and from the hand of the king of Israel, who have risen up together against me.”
2 Kings 15:29, 2 Kings 15:29, 1 Chronicles 5:26, Lamentations 4:17, 1 Kings 20:32
8And when he had collected the silver and the gold that could be found in the house of the Lord, and in the treasuries of the king, he sent it as a gift to the king of the Assyrians.
2 Kings 12:17, 2 Kings 12:18, 2 Kings 12:17, 2 Kings 12:18, Isaiah 8:7
9And he agreed to his will. For the king of the Assyrians ascended against Damascus, and he laid waste to it. And he carried away its inhabitants to Cyrene. But Rezin he killed.
Amos 9:7, Isaiah 22:6, Amos 9:7, Isaiah 22:6, Amos 1:3
10And king Ahaz traveled to Damascus to meet Tiglath-pileser, the king of the Assyrians. And when he had seen the altar of Damascus, king Ahaz sent to Uriah, the priest, its pattern and likeness, according to all of its work.
Romans 12:2, Isaiah 8:2, Romans 12:2, Isaiah 8:2, Ezekiel 23:16
11And Uriah, the priest, constructed an altar in accord with all that king Ahaz had commanded from Damascus. Uriah, the priest, did so, until king Ahaz arrived from Damascus.
2 Chronicles 26:17, 2 Chronicles 26:18, Galatians 1:10, Hosea 5:11, Ezekiel 22:26
12And when the king had arrived from Damascus, he saw the altar, and he venerated it. And he went up and immolated holocausts, with his own sacrifice.
2 Chronicles 26:16, 2 Chronicles 26:19, 2 Chronicles 26:16, 2 Chronicles 26:19, 2 Chronicles 28:25
13And he offered libations, and he poured out the blood of the peace offerings, which he had offered, upon the altar.
Leviticus 1:1, Leviticus 1:3, Leviticus 1:1, Leviticus 1:3
14But the altar of brass, which was before the Lord, he took away from the face of the temple, and from the place of the altar, and from the place of the temple of the Lord. And he positioned it at the side of the altar, toward the north.
2 Chronicles 4:1, 2 Chronicles 4:1, Exodus 40:6, Exodus 40:29, Exodus 40:6
15Also, king Ahaz instructed Uriah, the priest, saying: “Upon the great altar, offer the morning holocaust, and the evening sacrifice, and the holocaust of the king, and his sacrifice, and the holocaust of the entire people of the land, and their sacrifices. But their libations, and all the blood of the holocaust, and all the blood of the victim, you shall pour out upon it. Then truly, the altar of brass shall be prepared for use at my will.”
Exodus 29:39, Exodus 29:41, Exodus 29:39, Exodus 29:41, 2 Chronicles 29:21
16And so Uriah, the priest, acted in accord with all that king Ahaz had instructed to him.
Acts 4:19, Acts 5:29, Jude 1:11, 1 Thessalonians 2:4, 2 Kings 16:11
17Then king Ahaz took away the engraved bases, and the basin that was upon them. And he took down the sea from the bronze oxen, which were holding it up. And he positioned it upon a layer of pavement stone.
2 Chronicles 29:19, 2 Chronicles 4:14, 2 Chronicles 4:15, Jeremiah 52:20, 2 Chronicles 28:24
18Also, the canopy for the Sabbath, which he had built in the temple, and the exterior entrance of the king, he converted into the temple of the Lord, because of the king of the Assyrians.
1 Kings 10:5, 2 Kings 11:5, Ezekiel 46:2, 1 Kings 10:5, 2 Kings 11:5
19Now the rest of the words of Ahaz that he did, have these not been written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah?
2 Kings 15:6, 2 Kings 15:7, 2 Kings 15:38, 2 Kings 20:20, 2 Kings 20:21
20And Ahaz slept with his fathers, and he was buried with them in the city of David. And Hezekiah, his son, reigned in his place.
Isaiah 1:1, Matthew 1:9, Isaiah 1:1, Matthew 1:9, 1 Chronicles 3:13
