2 Re 16:1 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 16:1

In the seventeenth year of Pekah the son of Remaliah Ahaz
the son of Jotham king of Judah began to reign.
] Jotham began to reign in the second of Pekah, and he reigned sixteen years, and therefore his last year would fall in the eighteenth of Pekah; but as his first year might be at the beginning of the second of Pekah, his last was towards the end of the seventeenth of Pekah's, as here; see ( 2 Kings 15:32 ) .

2 Re 16:1 In-Context

1 L’anno diciassettesimo di Pekah, figliuolo di Remalia, cominciò a regnare Achaz, figliuolo di Jotham, re di Giuda.
2 Achaz avea venti anni quando cominciò a regnare, e regnò sedici anni a Gerusalemme. Egli non fece ciò ch’è giusto agli occhi dell’Eterno, il suo Dio, come avea fatto Davide suo padre;
3 ma seguì la via dei re d’Israele, e fece perfino passare il suo figliuolo per il fuoco, seguendo le abominazioni delle genti che l’Eterno avea cacciate d’innanzi ai figliuoli d’Israele;
4 e offriva sacrifizi e profumi sugli alti luoghi, sulle colline, e sotto ogni albero verdeggiante.
5 Allora Retsin, re di Siria, e Pekah, figliuolo di Remalia, re d’Israele, salirono contro Gerusalemme per assalirla; e vi assediarono Achaz, ma non riuscirono a vincerlo.
