1. Observation: 1. Who: King Assyria, Samanese, King Sauer of Egypt, someone, a priest, Babylonian, ancient people, Hamath people, Jawa people, and Sifawayin people.
2. Dang: The twelfth year of Ahaz king of Judah, the ninth year of Hoshea, until now.
3. There: Samaria, all Israel, Assyria, Hala, the Habo River in Goshen, and the cities of the Medes.
4. What happened: Hoshea was king of Israel for nine years, and was imprisoned by the king of Assyria, and Israel was taken into exile in Assyria.
5. Reason: Israel has sinned against God.
6. When Saman Israel, king of Assyria, came up to attack Hoshea, Hoshea served him and gave him tribute.
King Xia 17:4 Hoshea betrayed and sent messengers to King Saul of Egypt instead of paying tribute to King Assyria as in previous years. When the king of Assyria found out, he locked him up and put him in prison.
7. Fruit: Book of Kings 17:23 So that the Lord drove them out from before him, as his servants the prophets had said. So Israel was carried away from their own land to Assyria to this day.
Second, explain
Chapter 28 mentions that in the reign of Ahaz son of Jotham king of Judah, Pekah king of Israel attacked Judah and captured the people. 2kgs 15: 30 It is said that Pekka was killed by Hoshea in Jotan for twenty years. What is the situation in this era? If Pekah was killed in the days of Jotham, why did he attack them in the days of Ahaz son of Jotham? Who reigned in Jotham for twenty years? 15: 32-33 mentioned that Jotan ascended the throne in the second year of Bika, and he was in office for 16 years, while Bika was in office for 20 years, which means Jotan died two years before Bika was killed by Hoshea. That is to say, the king of Judah in the twentieth year of Jotham should be Ahaz, the son of Jotham. Then why not the fourth year of Ahaz, but the twenty years of Jotham? Can the dead king continue to be the title? In addition, Xia Wang 15: 30 saved Hoshea from usurping the throne for 20 years. If 20 years in Jordan is the fourth year of Ahaz, and Hoshea ascended the throne in 12 of Ahaz, what is the time difference of 8 years? Is there any scripture that Jotham and Ahaz were in power for seven or eight years?
Third, meditation:
The nine-year history of northern Israeli rule over Hoshea is over forever, and the specific details of the middle reasons seem unimportant. The Bible records in detail that the root cause of their suffering is to abandon God. They were taken away, and the capital Samaria was occupied by foreigners. Since then, the people of these ten tribes have mixed with foreigners, and the local people in Samaria fear the Lord and worship idols "to this day". Such a result is completely without the victory and glory of the Israelites when they entered the land of Canaan. In fact, since Jeroboam, their hearts have not simply turned to God. Before their hybrids, the beliefs of the whole northland were not hybrids.
