2 Reyes 14:25

Listen to 2 Reyes 14:25
25 El restableció la frontera de Israel desde la entrada de Hamat hasta el mar de Arabá, conforme a la palabra que el SEÑOR, Dios de Israel, había hablado por medio de su siervo el profeta Jonás, hijo de Amitai, que era de Gat-hefer.

2 Reyes 14:25 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 14:25

He restored the coast of Israel
The cities upon it, which had been taken away from them by their enemies:

from the entering of Hamath;
which was the northern border of the land of Canaan, the entrance into it from Syria, see ( Numbers 34:8 ) ,

unto the sea of the plain:
of Jordan, called sometimes the salt sea and the Dead Sea; the lake Asphaltites, as Josephus F11, where formerly stood Sodom and Gomorrah:

according to the word of the Lord God of Israel, which he spake by the
hand of his servant Jonah the son of Amittai;
the same with him whose prophecy among the small prophets bears this name; and though his prophecy concerning Jeroboam's success and victories is not there, nor anywhere else, recorded at length, yet needed not to be doubted of; this is the first of the prophets spoken of whose books are extant:

which was of Gathhepher;
a city in the tribe of Zebulun, ( Joshua 19:13 ) , which contradicts a notion of the Jews, that no prophet came out of Galilee, when the very first of those that were the penmen of the books of prophecies was from thence, see ( John 7:52 ) .

2 Reyes 14:25 In-Context

23 En el año quince de Amasías, hijo de Joás, rey de Judá, Jeroboam, hijo de Jeoás, rey de Israel, comenzó a reinar en Samaria, y reinó cuarenta y un años.
24 E hizo lo malo ante los ojos del SEÑOR; no se apartó de todos los pecados con que Jeroboam, hijo de Nabat, hizo pecar a Israel.
25 El restableció la frontera de Israel desde la entrada de Hamat hasta el mar de Arabá, conforme a la palabra que el SEÑOR, Dios de Israel, había hablado por medio de su siervo el profeta Jonás, hijo de Amitai, que era de Gat-hefer.
26 Porque el SEÑOR había visto la aflicción de Israel, que era muy amarga; pues no había siervo ni libre, ni nadie que ayudara a Israel.
27 Pero el SEÑOR no había decidido borrar el nombre de Israel de debajo del cielo, y los salvó por mano de Jeroboam, hijo de Jeoás.
