2 Re 13:4 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 13:4

And Jehoahaz besought the Lord, and the Lord hearkened unto
him
He did not apply in his distress to the calves he worshipped, but to the Lord; who had a regard to his prayer, not for his sake, or any righteousness of his, or even his repentance and humiliation, which were only external; but for the sake of Israel, and because they were oppressed, who were his people, and he their God, though they had sadly departed from him:

for he saw the oppression of Israel;
not only with his eye of omniscience, but with an eye of mercy and compassion:

because the king of Syria oppressed them;
by his incursions upon them, and wars with them.

2 Re 13:4 In-Context

2 Egli fece ciò ch’è male agli occhi dell’Eterno, imitò i peccati coi quali Geroboamo, figliuolo di Nebat, aveva fatto peccare Israele, e non se ne ritrasse.
3 E l’ira dell’Eterno si accese contro gl’Israeliti, ed ei li diede nelle mani di Hazael, re di Siria, e nelle mani di Ben-Hadad, figliuolo di Hazael, per tutto quel tempo.
4 Ma Joachaz implorò l’Eterno, e l’Eterno lo esaudì, perché vide l’oppressione sotto la quale il re di Siria teneva Israele.
5 E l’Eterno diede un liberatore agl’Israeliti, i quali riuscirono a sottrarsi al potere dei Siri, in guisa che i figliuoli d’Israele poteron dimorare nelle loro tende, come per l’addietro.
6 Ma non si ritrassero dai peccati coi quali la casa di Geroboamo aveva fatto peccare Israele; e continuarono a camminare per quella via; perfino l’idolo di Astarte rimase in piè a Samaria.
