The Kings of Judah (Level 2 | 26)

Bible Brief | Discover the Story

We explore the story of the good kings of Judah and the eventual downfall of Jerusalem. It explores King Hezekiah's reign during the Assyrian conquest, his prayerful plea for deliverance, and God's miraculous intervention. The narrative continues through the rule of Manasseh and his encouragement of idolatry, leading the prophets to announce doom for Judah. Despite a brief revival under King Josiah, the tragic fall of Jerusalem to Babylon occurs in 586 BC.

Readings: 2 Kings 18:17-37, 2 Kings 19:1-36, 2 Kings 21:1-9, 2 Kings 22:8-13
