2 Reis 23:26-27

26 Todavia o Senhor não se demoveu do ardor da sua grande ira, com que ardia contra Judá por causa de todas as provocações com que Manassés o provocara.

27 E disse o Senhor: Também a Judá hei de remover de diante da minha face, como removi a Israel, e rejeitarei esta cidade de Jerusalém que elegi, como também a casa da qual eu disse: Estará ali o meu nome.

2 Reis 23:26-27 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO 2 KINGS 23

This chapter treats of Josiah's reading the book of the law, and of him and the people renewing the covenant with God, 2Ki 23:1-3, and of his removing idols and idolatry in every shape, and witchcraft, out of the land, which he did in the sincerity of his heart, 2Ki 23:4-25, yet the wrath of God was still determined upon the land, 2Ki 23:26-28 and Josiah was taken away by an untimely death, 2Ki 23:29,30 and was succeeded by two sons of his, one after another, whose reigns were wicked, 2Ki 23:31-37.
