2 Reyes 17:18 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 17:18

Therefore the Lord was very angry with Israel
Nothing being more provoking to him than idolatry:

and removed them out of his sight;
not out of the reach of his all seeing eye, but from all tokens of his favour, from the good land he had given them, and all the benefits and privileges of it:

there was none left but the tribe of Judah only;
and part of Benjamin, which was annexed to it, and incorporated in it, and made one kingdom, and maintained the same worship; and there was the lot of Simeon, which was within the tribe of Judah; and the priests and the Levites, and various individuals of the several tribes, that came and settled among them for the sake of worship; but no perfect, distinct, tribe besides.

2 Reyes 17:18 In-Context

16 Y dejaron todos los mandamientos del SE脩OR su Dios, y se hicieron vaciadizos, dos becerros; e hicieron bosques, y adoraron a todo el ej茅rcito del cielo, y sirvieron a Baal;
17 e hicieron pasar a sus hijos y a sus hijas por fuego; y adivinaron adivinaciones y eran ag眉eros, y se entregaron a hacer lo malo en ojos del SE脩OR, provoc谩ndole a ira.
18 Y el SE脩OR se air贸 en gran manera contra Israel, y los quit贸 de delante de su rostro; que no qued贸 sino s贸lo la tribu de Jud谩.
19 Mas ni aun Jud谩 guard贸 los mandamientos del SE脩OR su Dios; antes anduvieron en los estatutos de Israel, los cuales ellos mismos hicieron.
20 Y desech贸 el SE脩OR toda la simiente de Israel, y los afligi贸, y los entreg贸 en manos de saqueadores, hasta echarlos de su presencia.
