Ahaz

“And Jotham rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the City of David his father. And his son Ahaz reigned in his place.”

“In the seventeenth year of Pekah son of Remaliah, Ahaz son of Jotham became king of Judah.”

“And Jotham rested with his fathers and was buried in the City of David. And his son Ahaz reigned in his place.”

“Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. And unlike David his father, he did not do what was right in the eyes of the LORD.”

“Instead, he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and even sacrificed his son in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations that the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.”

“And he sacrificed and burned incense on the high places, on the hills, and under every green tree.”

“Instead, he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and even made cast images of the Baals.”

“In the time of his distress, King Ahaz became even more unfaithful to the LORD.”
