Today I read 2 Kings 17, in which Samaria was captured by the Assyrians, Israel resettled with Assyrians, and God allowed these events because of the sins of Israel and Judah.

Today I read 2 Kings 16, in which Ahaz, king of Judah, received help from Assyria.

Today I read 2 Kings 15, in which Azariah and Jotham became king of Judah; Zachariah, Shallum, Menahem, Pekahiah, and Pekah became king of Israel.
