2 Re 13:4 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 13:4

And Jehoahaz besought the Lord, and the Lord hearkened unto
him
He did not apply in his distress to the calves he worshipped, but to the Lord; who had a regard to his prayer, not for his sake, or any righteousness of his, or even his repentance and humiliation, which were only external; but for the sake of Israel, and because they were oppressed, who were his people, and he their God, though they had sadly departed from him:

for he saw the oppression of Israel;
not only with his eye of omniscience, but with an eye of mercy and compassion:

because the king of Syria oppressed them;
by his incursions upon them, and wars with them.

2 Re 13:4 In-Context

2 E fece quello che dispiace al Signore, e seguitò i peccati di Geroboamo, figliuolo di Nebat, co’ quali egli avea fatto peccare Israele; egli non se ne rivolse.
3 Laonde l’ira del Signore si accese contro ad Israele; ed egli li diede nelle mani di Hazael, re di Siria, e nelle mani di Ben-hadad, figliuolo di Hazael, tutto quel tempo.
4 Ma Gioachaz pregò il Signore; e il Signore l’esaudì; perciocchè egli vide l’oppressione d’Israele; conciossiachè il re di Siria li oppressasse.
5 Il Signore adunque diede un liberatore ad Israele; ed essi uscirono di sotto alla mano de’ Siri; ed i figliuoli d’Israele abitarono nelle loro stanze, come per addietro.
6 Ma pur non si rivolsero dai peccati della casa di Geroboamo, coi quali egli avea fatto peccare Israele; Israele camminava in essi; il bosco eziandio rimase in piè in Samaria.
