2 Chronicles 26; 2 Chronicles 27; 2 Chronicles 28
Jehoiada the priest makes Joash king. Athaliah is slain. Worship of the Lord is restored, and the priest of Baal is slain. Joash and Jehoiada receive contributions and repair the house of the Lord. Jehoiada dies. Joash falls into idolatry, slays a prophet named Zechariah, and is himself slain in a conspiracy. Amaziah reigns, smites the Edomites, and worships false gods. A prophet foretells Amaziah’s destruction. Judah is defeated by Israel, and Amaziah is slain in a conspiracy. Uzziah reigns and prospers as long as he keeps the commandments. He transgresses, burns incense upon the altar, and is cursed with leprosy. Jotham reigns, builds up the kingdom, and subdues the Ammonites. Ahaz reigns in wickedness and practices idolatry; his people are defeated by Israel. The captives are freed by the command of a prophet. The Assyrians and Philistines attack Judah. Ahaz continues his idolatrous ways.
