THE ORIGIN STORY OF JESUS
Part 60: The Kings of Judah
(Hezekiah) |
|
|
In order for the temple to function properly, it
needed a staff of priests and Levites to oversee sacrifices, music,
and logistics. Hezekiah went so far as to reject the pact that his
father had made with Assyria and King Sennacherib arrived some years
later to collect the tribute. Hezekiah initially tried to appease
him, but when Sennacherib demanded 300 talents of silver and 30
talents of gold, Hezekiah stripped the temple and raided his palace
to meet the ultimatum. It is impossible to pacify Lucifer and
Sennacherib went on to demand Judah’s surrender. Hezekiah realized
that he needed supernatural assistance and Jesus promised to help.
The next morning Assyrian king awoke to find 185,000 of his soldiers
lying dead on the ground and he abruptly left. Hezekiah loved the
Lord with all his heart, but he struggled with unbelief and did not
always trust Jesus to help in a crisis moment. |
