2 Re 14:26-27

26 Perciocchè il Signore vide l’afflizione d’Israele ch’era molto aspra, e che non vi era più nè serrato nè abbandonato, nè chi soccorresse Israele.

27 E il Signore non avea ancora parlato di cancellare il nome d’Israele disotto al cielo; e però egli li salvò per man di Geroboamo, figliuolo di Gioas.

2 Re 14:26-27 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO 2 KINGS 14

In this chapter we have the good reign of Amaziah king of Judah, his victories over the Edomites, and war with Jehoash king of Israel, by whom he was taken, who died quickly after, 2Ki 14:1-16, but Amaziah lived fifteen years afterwards, and was slain by a conspiracy against him, and Azariah his son reigned in his stead, 2Ki 14:17-22, and a short account is given of the reign of Jeroboam the second, king of Israel, 2Ki 14:23-29.
