2 Re 17:3 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 17:3

Against him came up Shalmaneser king of Assyria
Which some take to be the same with Tiglathpileser, see ( 1 Chronicles 5:26 ) but he rather seems to be his son; his name was to be found, as Josephus F23 relates, in the archives of the Tyrians, against whom he had an expedition; his name is Salmanassar in Metasthenes F24, who says he reigned seventeen years:

and Hoshea became his servant, and gave him presents,
to depart from him; he became tributary to him, and agreed to pay him a yearly tax.

2 Re 17:3 In-Context

1 L’ANNO duodecimo di Achaz, re di Giuda, Osea, figliuolo di Ela, cominciò a regnare sopra Israele, in Samaria; e regnò nove anni.
2 E fece quello che dispiace al Signore; non però come gli altri re d’Israele, che erano stati davanti a lui.
3 Salmaneser, re degli Assiri, salì contro a lui; ed Osea gli fu fatto soggetto, e gli pagava tributo.
4 Ma il re degli Assiri scoperse una congiura in Osea; perciocchè egli avea mandati ambasciatori a So, re d’Egitto, e non avea pagato il tributo annuale al re degli Assiri; laonde il re degli Assiri lo serrò, e lo mise ne’ ceppi in carcere.
5 E il re degli Assiri salì per tutto il paese, e venne in Samaria, e vi tenne l’assedio tre anni.
