Second Kings depicts the downfall of the divided kingdom. Prophets continue to warn the people that the judgment of God is at hand, but they refuse to repent. The kingdom of Israel is repeatedly ruled by wicked kings. Every one of them is found wanting. And, even though a few of Judah’s kings are righteous, most lead the people away from worship of the Lord. These few good rulers, along with God’s prophets, cannot stop the nation’s decline. Scriptures referenced include: 2 Kings 17:7-8; 1 Samuel 8:5, 20; 1 Corinthians 10:31; Deuteronomy 6:13; and Luke 16:13.
