2 Reyes 17:24

Listen to 2 Reyes 17:24

2 Reyes 17:24 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 17:24

And the king of Assyria brought men from Babylon
Which was at this time under the dominion of the king of Assyria; though in a little time after this it revolted, and had a king of its own, ( 2 Kings 20:12 ) , this king of Assyria was either Shalmaneser, who carried Israel captive, or it may be rather his son Esarhaddon, see ( Ezra 4:2 ) ,

and from Cuthah;
which, according to Josephus F11, was a city in Persia, where was a river of the same name; but it was rather a place in Erech, in the country of Babylon, (See Gill on Genesis 10:10),

and from Ava;
the same with Ivah, ( Isaiah 37:13 ) , where perhaps a colony of the Avim had settled, ( Deuteronomy 2:23 )

and from Hamath;
a city of Syria, which lay on the northern borders of the land of Canaan, ( Numbers 34:8 )

and from Sepharvaim;
thought by some to be the Sippara of Ptolemy, or the Sippareni of Abydenus, in Mesopotamia; though Vitringa takes it to be a city in Syro-Phoenicia, (See Gill on Isaiah 36:19),

and placed them in the cities of Samaria, instead of the children of
Israel;
not in Samaria, which was now destroyed, according to the prophecy in ( Micah 1:6 ) as Abarbinel and other Jewish writers note:

and they possessed Samaria;
as an inheritance; sowed it with corn, and planted vineyards there:

and dwelt in the cities thereof;
in the several parts of the kingdom.

2 Reyes 17:24 In-Context

22 Y los hijos de Israel anduvieron en todos los pecados de Jeroboam, que él hizo, sin apartarse de ellos
23 hasta tanto que el SEÑOR quitó a Israel de delante de su rostro, como lo había él dicho por mano de todos los profetas sus siervos; e Israel fue transportado de su tierra a Asiria, hasta hoy
24 Y trajo el rey de Asiria gentiles de Babilonia, de Cuta, de Ava, de Hamat, y de Sefarvaim, y los puso en las ciudades de Samaria en lugar de los hijos de Israel; y poseyeron a Samaria, y habitaron en sus ciudades
25 Y aconteció al principio, cuando comenzaron a habitar allí, que no temiendo ellos al SEÑOR, envió el SEÑOR contra ellos leones que los mataban
26 Entonces dijeron ellos al rey de Asiria: Los gentiles que tú traspasaste y pusiste en las ciudades de Samaria, no saben el juicio del Dios de aquella tierra, y él ha echado leones en ellos, y he aquí los matan, porque no saben el juicio del Dios de la tierra
