Thematic Bible



At that time Jehovah first sent Rezin, king of Aram, and Pekah, son of Remaliah, against Judah.


In the days of Ahaz son of Jotham son of Uzziah, king of Judah, King Rezin of Aram and King Pekah son of Remaliah of Israel went up to attack Jerusalem, but could not mount an attack against it. A report was made to the house of David saying: Aram has allied itself with Ephraim. The heart of Ahaz and the heart of his people shook (their courage failed) as the trees of the forest shake before the wind. Jehovah said to Isaiah: You and your son Shear-ja'shub should go out to meet Ahaz at the end of the conduit of the upper pool on the highway to the (laundryman's field) Fuller's Field. read more.
Say to him: 'Be careful, keep calm and do not be afraid. Do not lose heart because of these two smoldering stubs of firewood and because of the fierce anger of Rezin and Aram and of the son of Remaliah. Aram, Ephraim and Remaliah's son have plotted your ruin. They say: Let us invade Judah. Let us tear it apart and divide it among us. Let us make the son of Tabeel king over Judah. This is what the Lord Jehovah says: It will not take place! It will not happen! Because the head of Aram is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is only Rezin. Within sixty-five years Ephraim will be too shattered to be a people. The head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is only Remaliah's son. If you do not stand firm in your faith, you will not stand at all.'

Before the boy knows how to say Father or Mother the wealth of Damascus and the loot from Samaria will be carried away to the king of Assyria. Jehovah spoke to me again, He said: These people have rejected the gently flowing water of Shiloah and find joy in Rezin and Remaliah's son. read more.
That is why Jehovah is going to bring against them the raging and powerful floodwaters of the Euphrates River, that is, the king of Assyria with all his power. It will overflow all its channels and go over all its banks. It will sweep through Judah. It will overflow and pass through. It will be neck-high. Its outspread wings will extend over your entire country, O Immanuel.

But Jehovah has strengthened Rezin's foes against them and has spurred their enemies on.


The children of Rezin, the children of Nekoda, the children of Gazzam,

The children of Reaiah, the children of Rezin, the children of Nekoda,


Rezin king of Aram, and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came to Jerusalem to make war. They attacked Ahaz but could not conquer him. Then the king of Edom got Elath back for Edom, and sent the Jews out of Elath. The Edomites returned to Elath where they are living to this day. Ahaz sent representatives to Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, saying: I am your servant and your son. Come help me against the kings of Aram and Israel who have taken up arms against me. read more.
Ahaz took the silver and gold in the Temple of Jehovah and in the king's storehouse, and sent them as an offering to the king of Assyria. The king of Assyria, in answer to his request, went up against Damascus and captured it. He took its people away as prisoners to Kir, and put Rezin to death.

At that time Jehovah first sent Rezin, king of Aram, and Pekah, son of Remaliah, against Judah.
