Ethan: Welcome To Immerse: The
Daily Bible Reading Experience.

00:00:03.267 --> 00:00:04.737
Day 200 and 32

00:00:05.094 --> 00:00:11.544
Ahab had 70 sons living in the city
of Samaria, so g Hu wrote letters and

00:00:11.544 --> 00:00:15.174
sent them to Samaria, to the elders
and officials of the city, and to

00:00:15.174 --> 00:00:17.004
the guardians of King Ahab's sons.

00:00:17.724 --> 00:00:23.064
He said The king's sons are with you
and you have at your disposal chariots,

00:00:23.244 --> 00:00:25.974
horses, a fortified city, and weapons.

00:00:26.709 --> 00:00:30.399
As soon as you receive this letter,
select the best qualified of your

00:00:30.399 --> 00:00:35.379
master's sons to be your king and
prepare to fight for Ahab's Dynasty.

00:00:36.669 --> 00:00:41.529
But they were paralyzed with fear
and said, we've seen that two kings

00:00:41.529 --> 00:00:43.029
couldn't stand against this man.

00:00:43.449 --> 00:00:44.319
What can we do?

00:00:45.009 --> 00:00:48.849
So the palace and city administrators,
together with the elders and

00:00:48.849 --> 00:00:52.569
the guardians of the king's
sons, sent this message to G hu.

00:00:53.214 --> 00:00:56.274
We are your servants and
will do anything you tell us.

00:00:56.844 --> 00:00:58.494
We will not make anyone king.

00:00:58.944 --> 00:01:00.504
Do whatever you think is best.

00:01:01.494 --> 00:01:03.444
Ge hu responded with a second letter.

00:01:03.954 --> 00:01:08.394
If you are on my side and are going
to obey me, bring the heads of your

00:01:08.394 --> 00:01:14.184
Master's sons to me at Jezreel By
this time tomorrow now, the 70 sons

00:01:14.184 --> 00:01:18.084
of the King were being cared for by
the leaders of Samaria where they

00:01:18.084 --> 00:01:19.554
had been raised since childhood.

00:01:20.184 --> 00:01:24.804
When the letter arrived, the leaders
killed all 70 of the King's sons.

00:01:25.374 --> 00:01:30.024
They placed their heads in baskets
and presented them to g hu at Jezreel.

00:01:30.834 --> 00:01:34.854
A messenger went to G hu and said they
have brought the heads of the king's

00:01:34.854 --> 00:01:40.794
sons, so G hu ordered pile them in two
heaps at the entrance of the city gate

00:01:41.034 --> 00:01:42.564
and leave them there until morning.

00:01:43.314 --> 00:01:44.064
In the morning.

00:01:44.124 --> 00:01:46.914
He went out and spoke to the crowd
that had gathered around them.

00:01:47.739 --> 00:01:48.879
You are not to blame.

00:01:48.969 --> 00:01:52.839
He told them, I am the one who
conspired against my master and

00:01:52.839 --> 00:01:55.509
killed him, but who killed all these?

00:01:56.109 --> 00:01:59.649
You can be sure that the message of
the Lord that was spoken concerning

00:01:59.649 --> 00:02:01.659
Ahab's family will not fail.

00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:06.069
The Lord declared through his servant
Elijah that this would happen.

00:02:06.969 --> 00:02:11.739
Then Ghe killed all who were left of
Ahab's relatives living in Jezreel

00:02:12.069 --> 00:02:16.539
and all his important officials, his
personal friends, and his priests.

00:02:17.574 --> 00:02:20.304
So Ahab was left without
a single survivor.

00:02:21.234 --> 00:02:24.894
Then G Hu set out for
Samaria along the way.

00:02:25.254 --> 00:02:28.914
While he was at Beth Eid of
the Shepherds, he met some

00:02:28.914 --> 00:02:31.524
relatives of King Eiah of Judah.

00:02:32.064 --> 00:02:32.754
Who are you?

00:02:32.844 --> 00:02:37.404
He asked them and they replied,
we are relatives of King Ahah.

00:02:37.794 --> 00:02:41.694
We are going to visit the sons of King
Ahab and the sons of the Queen mother.

00:02:42.354 --> 00:02:43.224
Take them alive.

00:02:43.314 --> 00:02:48.144
Gee hu shouted to his men and they
captured all 42 of them and killed

00:02:48.144 --> 00:02:50.184
them at the well of Beth Eki.

00:02:50.724 --> 00:02:54.444
None of them escaped
when Gee Hu left there.

00:02:54.504 --> 00:02:59.574
He met Johanna Daab son of rehab,
who was coming to meet him after

00:02:59.574 --> 00:03:00.714
they had greeted each other.

00:03:00.834 --> 00:03:05.064
Gee Hu said to him, are you
as loyal to me as I am to you?

00:03:05.844 --> 00:03:06.804
Yes, I am.

00:03:07.164 --> 00:03:08.394
Johanna Daab replied.

00:03:09.129 --> 00:03:12.159
If you are ge Hu said,
then give me your hand.

00:03:12.789 --> 00:03:16.959
So Johanna Daab put out his hand and
g hu helped him into the chariot.

00:03:17.559 --> 00:03:22.629
Then GE Hu said, now come with me
and see how devoted I am to the Lord.

00:03:23.469 --> 00:03:28.449
So Johanna Daab wrote along with
him when Gee Hu arrived in Samaria.

00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:33.129
He killed everyone who was left
there from Ahab's family, just as

00:03:33.129 --> 00:03:35.199
the Lord had promised through Elijah.

00:03:36.699 --> 00:03:41.319
Then g hu called a meeting of all the
people of the city and said to them,

00:03:41.799 --> 00:03:46.809
Ahab's, worship of Baal was nothing
compared to the way I will worship him.

00:03:47.739 --> 00:03:51.489
Therefore, summon all the prophets
and worshipers of Baal and

00:03:51.489 --> 00:03:53.199
call together all his priests.

00:03:53.619 --> 00:03:56.019
See to it that every
one of them comes for.

00:03:56.024 --> 00:03:58.779
I am going to offer a
great sacrifice to bail.

00:03:59.559 --> 00:04:02.169
Anyone who fails to come
will be put to death.

00:04:02.694 --> 00:04:07.134
But gee, Hugh's cunning plan was to
destroy all the worshipers of Baal.

00:04:07.974 --> 00:04:11.904
Then G hu ordered prepare a
solemn assembly to worship Baal.

00:04:13.074 --> 00:04:13.794
So they did.

00:04:14.364 --> 00:04:17.874
He sent messengers throughout
all Israel summoning those who

00:04:17.874 --> 00:04:22.254
worshiped Baal, they all came,
not a single one, remained behind.

00:04:22.854 --> 00:04:26.004
And they filled the temple of
Baal from one end to the other.

00:04:26.424 --> 00:04:29.304
And g hu instructed the
keeper of the wardrobe.

00:04:29.994 --> 00:04:33.474
Be sure that every worshiper of
Baal wears one of these robes,

00:04:34.374 --> 00:04:35.754
so robes were given to them.

00:04:36.714 --> 00:04:41.244
Then ge hu went into the temple of
Baal with Jehan Dam, son of rehab.

00:04:41.784 --> 00:04:46.524
Ge Hu said to the worshipers of Baal,
make sure no one who worships the Lord

00:04:46.529 --> 00:04:48.924
is here, only those who worship Baal.

00:04:49.974 --> 00:04:54.294
So they were all inside the temple to
offer sacrifices and burnt offerings.

00:04:55.104 --> 00:04:59.244
Now, g hu had stationed 80 of
his men outside the building.

00:04:59.679 --> 00:05:03.669
And had warned them, if you
let anyone escape, you will

00:05:03.669 --> 00:05:05.259
pay for it with your own life.

00:05:06.009 --> 00:05:09.699
As soon as G Hu had finished
sacrificing the burnt offering, he

00:05:09.699 --> 00:05:14.319
commanded his guards and officers
go in and kill all of them.

00:05:14.829 --> 00:05:16.449
Don't let a single one escape.

00:05:17.229 --> 00:05:21.129
So they killed them all with their
swords and the guards and officers

00:05:21.249 --> 00:05:22.899
dragged their bodies outside.

00:05:24.039 --> 00:05:27.969
Then G Hughes men went into the
innermost fortress of the temple of Baal.

00:05:28.869 --> 00:05:33.129
They dragged out the sacred pillar used
in the worship of Baal and burned it.

00:05:33.819 --> 00:05:38.889
They smashed the sacred pillar and wrecked
the temple of Baal, converting it into a

00:05:38.889 --> 00:05:41.619
public toilet as it remains to this day.

00:05:42.579 --> 00:05:47.319
In this way, GE Hu destroyed every
trace of Baal worship from Israel.

00:05:48.039 --> 00:05:53.289
He did not, however, destroy the gold
calves at Bethel and Dan, with which Jar

00:05:53.289 --> 00:05:56.349
Boem son of Neba had caused Israel to sin.

00:05:57.069 --> 00:06:01.089
Nonetheless, the Lord said to,
gee Hu, you have done well in

00:06:01.089 --> 00:06:04.299
following my instructions to
destroy the family of Ahab.

00:06:05.109 --> 00:06:09.969
Therefore, your descendants will be kings
of Israel down to the fourth generation.

00:06:11.049 --> 00:06:14.499
But Gee Hu did not obey the
law of the Lord, the God of

00:06:14.499 --> 00:06:15.939
Israel with all his heart.

00:06:16.419 --> 00:06:20.649
He refused to turn from the sins that
Jar Boem had led Israel to commit.

00:06:21.699 --> 00:06:26.259
At about that time, the Lord began to
cut down the size of Israel's territory.

00:06:27.069 --> 00:06:31.239
King Hazel conquered several sections
of the country, east of the Jordan

00:06:31.239 --> 00:06:38.079
River, including all of Gilead Gad
Rubin, and he conquered the area from

00:06:38.084 --> 00:06:43.719
the town of Aurora by the Arnn Gorge
to as far north as Gilead and Ian.

00:06:45.339 --> 00:06:49.659
The rest of the events in GE Hughes
Reign, everything he did and all his

00:06:49.659 --> 00:06:53.769
achievements are recorded in the book
of the history of the Kings of Israel.

00:06:54.549 --> 00:06:57.279
When Gee Hu died, he
was buried in Samaria.

00:06:57.789 --> 00:07:00.729
Then his son Jehoahaz
became the next king.

00:07:01.419 --> 00:07:06.399
In all Gee Hu reigned over
Israel from Samaria for 28 years.

00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:11.319
This concludes today's
immerse reading experience.
