2 Kings 15:37 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 15:37

In those days
At the end of the days of Jotham, or after his death, things might be in design, and preparations made before, but nothing of what follows came to pass in his life, but in the times of his son;

the Lord began to send against Judah Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah
the son of Remaliah:
to make war with them as a scourge to Ahaz for his sins; of which is in the following chapter.

2 Kings 15:37 In-Context

35 Nevertheless the high places were not removed; the people still sacrificed and made offerings on the high places. He built the upper gate of the house of the Lord.
36 Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Annals of the Kings of Judah?
37 In those days the Lord began to send King Rezin of Aram and Pekah son of Remaliah against Judah.
38 Jotham slept with his ancestors, and was buried with his ancestors in the city of David, his ancestor; his son Ahaz succeeded him.
