Divrey Hayamim Bais 28:20 Meaning and Commentary

2 Chronicles 28:20

And Tilgathpilneser king of Assyria came unto him
Not to Jerusalem, but to Damascus, where he made a diversion in his favour, and took that city, and where Ahaz met him, ( 2 Kings 16:9 )

and distressed him, but strengthened him not;
exhausted his treasures, and laid a tribute upon him, but did not help him against the Edomites and Philistines, or recover for him the cities they had taken from him; and, in taking Damascus, he served himself more than Ahaz, and paved the way for seizing upon the ten tribes.

Divrey Hayamim Bais 28:20 In-Context

18 The Pelishtim also had invaded the towns of the Shefelah, and of the Negev of Yehudah, and had taken Beit Shemesh, Ayalon, Gederot, and Shocho with the villages thereof, and Timnah with the villages thereof, Gimzo also and the villages thereof, and they dwelt there.

19 For Hashem brought Yehudah low because of Achaz Melech Yisroel, for he brought disgrace to Yehudah, and acted treacherously against Hashem.

20 And Tilgat Pilneser Melech Ashur came unto him, and oppressed him, but helped him not.

21 For Achaz took away a portion out of the Beis Hashem, and out of the Bais HaMelech, and of the sarim, and gave it unto Melech Ashur, but he helped him not.

22 And in the time of his distress he did act even more unfaithfully against Hashem. This is that Melech Achaz.
