2 Reyes 17:4 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 17:4

And the king of Assyria found conspiracy in Hoshea
That he was forming a scheme to rebel against him, and cast off his yoke; of this he had intelligence by spies he sent, and placed to observe him very probably:

for he had sent messengers to So king of Egypt;
to treat with him, and enter into alliance with him, to help him against, and free him from, the king of Assyria. This king of Egypt is supposed to be Sabacon the Ethiopian, who reigned in Egypt ninety years; of whom Herodotus F25 and Diodorus Siculus F26 make mention; by Theodoret he is called Adramelech the Ethiopian, who dwelt in Egypt:

and brought no presents to the king of Assyria, as he had done year by
year;
did not pay him his yearly tribute:

therefore the king of Assyria shut him up, and bound him in prison;
that is, after he took Samaria, the siege of which is next related; unless it can be thought that he met with him somewhere out of the capital, and seized him, and made him his prisoner, and after that besieged his city; which is not so likely.

2 Reyes 17:4 In-Context

2 脡l hizo lo malo a los ojos del Se帽or
, aunque no tanto como los reyes de Israel que gobernaron antes que 茅l.
3 Salmanasar, rey de Asiria, atac贸 al rey Oseas, por eso Oseas se vio obligado a pagar un elevado tributo a Asiria.
4 Sin embargo, Oseas dej贸 de pagar el tributo anual y conspir贸 contra el rey de Asiria al pedirle a So, rey de Egipto,
que lo ayudara a liberarse del poder del rey de Asiria. Cuando el rey de Asiria descubri贸 la traici贸n, tom贸 a Oseas por la fuerza y lo meti贸 en la c谩rcel.
5 Samaria cae ante Asiria
Entonces el rey de Asiria invadi贸 todo el territorio y siti贸 a la ciudad de Samaria durante tres a帽os.
6 Finalmente, en el a帽o nueve del reinado de Oseas, Samaria cay贸 y los israelitas fueron desterrados a Asiria, donde los establecieron en colonias en la regi贸n de Halah, en Goz谩n junto a la ribera del r铆o Habor, y en las ciudades de los medos.
