S E C O N D K I N G S CHAP. XVI. This chapter is wholly taken up with the reign of Ahaz; and we have quite enough of it, unless it were better. He had a good father, and a better son, and yet was himself one of the worst of the kings of Judah. I. He was a notorious idolater, 2 Kings 16:1-4 . II. With the treasures of the temple, as well as his own, he hired the king of Assyria to invade Syria and Israel, 2 Kings 16:5-9 . III. He took pattern from an idol's altar which he saw at Damascus for a new altar in God's temple, 2 Kings 16:10-16 . IV. He abused and embezzled the furniture of the temple, 2 Kings 16:17 ; 2 Kings 16:18 . And so his story ends, 2 Kings 16:19 ; 2 Kings 16:20 . return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verses-1-4" class="com-number"
