Ahaz was twenty years old when he came to the throne, and he reigned for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what Yahweh his God regards as right, as his ancestor David had done. (2 Kings 16, 2)
The king of Assyria granted his request and, marching on Damascus, captured it; he deported its population to Kir and put Razon to death. (2 Kings 16, 9)
When King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria, he saw the altar which was in Damascus. King Ahaz then sent a picture and model of the altar, with details of its construction, to Uriah the priest. (2 Kings 16, 10)
Uriah the priest constructed the altar; all the instructions sent by King Ahaz from Damascus were carried out by Uriah the priest before King Ahaz returned from Damascus. (2 Kings 16, 11)
King Ahaz gave this order to Uriah the priest, 'In future you will present the morning burnt offering, the evening oblation, the king's burnt offering and oblation, the burnt offering, the oblation and the libations of all the people of the country on the large altar; on it you will pour out all the blood of the burnt offerings and sacrifices. As regards the bronze altar, I shall see to that.' (2 Kings 16, 15)
Uriah the priest did everything that King Ahaz had ordered. (2 Kings 16, 16)
King Ahaz broke up the wheeled stands; removed the crosspieces and the basins from them, and took the bronze Sea off the oxen supporting it, and rested it on the stone pavement. (2 Kings 16, 17)
The rest of the history of Ahaz, his entire career, is this not recorded in the Book of the Annals of the Kings of Judah? (2 Kings 16, 19)
Then Ahaz fell asleep with his ancestors and was buried in the City of David; his son Hezekiah succeeded him. (2 Kings 16, 20)
But they would not listen, they were as stubborn as their ancestors, who had no faith in Yahweh their God. (2 Kings 17, 14)
They despised his laws and the covenant which he had made with their ancestors and the warnings which he had given them. Pursuing futility, they themselves became futile through copying the nations round them, although Yahweh had ordered them not to act as they did. (2 Kings 17, 15)
So the king of Assyria gave this order, 'Send back one of the priests whom I deported from there; let him go and live there and teach them how to worship the local god.' (2 Kings 17, 27)
