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

00:00:03.257 --> 00:00:04.687
Day 200 and 27

00:00:05.121 --> 00:00:09.771
jehoshaphat's son of Asa began to
rule over Judah in the fourth year

00:00:09.776 --> 00:00:11.511
of King Ahab's reign in Israel.

00:00:12.291 --> 00:00:16.251
Jehoshaphat was 35 years old
when he became King, and he

00:00:16.256 --> 00:00:18.501
reigned in Jerusalem 25 years.

00:00:19.251 --> 00:00:22.431
His mother was Azua,
the daughter of SH high.

00:00:24.411 --> 00:00:28.731
Jehoshaphat was a good king following
the example of his father Asa.

00:00:29.826 --> 00:00:33.786
He did what was pleasing in the
Lord's sight during his reign.

00:00:33.786 --> 00:00:38.826
However, he failed to remove all the
pagan shrines and the people still offered

00:00:38.831 --> 00:00:41.106
sacrifices and burned incense there.

00:00:41.826 --> 00:00:44.676
Jehoshaphat also made peace
with the King of Israel.

00:00:46.476 --> 00:00:51.066
The rest of the events in Jehoshaphat's
Reign, the extent of his power and the

00:00:51.066 --> 00:00:55.206
wars he waged are recorded in the book
of the history of the Kings of Judah.

00:00:55.941 --> 00:01:00.741
He banished from the land, the rest of
the male and female shrine prostitutes,

00:01:01.041 --> 00:01:04.701
who still continued their practices
from the days of his father Asa.

00:01:05.481 --> 00:01:08.091
There was no king in Edam at that time.

00:01:08.661 --> 00:01:15.471
Only a deputy Jehoshaphat also built a
fleet of trading ships to sail to ER for

00:01:15.471 --> 00:01:19.221
gold, but the ships never set sail for.

00:01:19.221 --> 00:01:20.991
They met with disaster in their home.

00:01:20.991 --> 00:01:22.791
Port of Izzy and Giber.

00:01:23.751 --> 00:01:29.961
At one time, ahah son of Ahab had
proposed to Jehoshaphat, let My Men

00:01:29.961 --> 00:01:31.671
Sail with your men in the Ships.

00:01:32.271 --> 00:01:34.401
But Jehoshaphat refused the request.

00:01:35.331 --> 00:01:39.561
When Jehoshaphat died, he was buried
with his ancestors in the city of David.

00:01:40.341 --> 00:01:43.221
Then his son, Horam, became the next king.

00:01:45.876 --> 00:01:51.126
Ahah son of Ahab began to rule
over Israel in the 17th year of

00:01:51.126 --> 00:01:53.106
King Jehoshaphat's reign in Judah.

00:01:53.766 --> 00:01:59.016
He reigned in Samaria two years, but he
did what was evil in the Lord's sight

00:01:59.376 --> 00:02:03.846
following the example of his father and
mother and the example of Jar Boham,

00:02:03.966 --> 00:02:06.966
son of Nebat who had led Israel to sin.

00:02:07.746 --> 00:02:10.236
He served Baal and worshiped him.

00:02:10.626 --> 00:02:15.426
Provoking the anger of the Lord, the God
of Israel, just as his father had done.

00:02:17.256 --> 00:02:21.876
After King Ahab's death, the land
of Moab rebelled against Israel.

00:02:22.986 --> 00:02:27.726
One day, Israel's new king, a Isaiah,
fell through the lattice work of

00:02:27.726 --> 00:02:31.746
an upper room at his palace in
Samaria and was seriously injured.

00:02:32.486 --> 00:02:36.846
So he sent messengers to the temple
of Baal Zebu, the God of Akron,

00:02:37.326 --> 00:02:39.036
to ask whether he would recover.

00:02:40.326 --> 00:02:46.086
But the angel of the Lord told Elijah,
who is from Tishbe, go and confront the

00:02:46.086 --> 00:02:51.246
messengers of the King of Samaria and
ask them, is there no God in Israel?

00:02:51.876 --> 00:02:56.106
Why are you going to ba zebu
the God of Akron, to ask whether

00:02:56.106 --> 00:02:58.326
the king will recover now?

00:02:58.331 --> 00:03:00.486
Therefore, this is what the Lord says.

00:03:01.206 --> 00:03:03.756
You will never leave the
bed you are lying on.

00:03:04.266 --> 00:03:05.436
You'll surely die.

00:03:06.126 --> 00:03:08.766
So Elijah went to deliver the message.

00:03:09.636 --> 00:03:12.456
When the messengers returned
to the king, he asked them,

00:03:13.146 --> 00:03:14.646
why have you returned so soon?

00:03:15.786 --> 00:03:20.436
They replied, A man came up to
us and told us to go back to the

00:03:20.436 --> 00:03:22.266
king and give him this message.

00:03:22.806 --> 00:03:26.436
This is what the Lord says,
is there no God in his Israel?

00:03:26.916 --> 00:03:30.666
Why are you sending men to
Baal Zebu, the God of Akron, to

00:03:30.666 --> 00:03:32.106
ask whether you will recover.

00:03:32.946 --> 00:03:37.326
Therefore, because you have done this, you
will never leave the bed you are lying on.

00:03:37.731 --> 00:03:38.871
You will surely die.

00:03:39.921 --> 00:03:42.411
What sort of man was
he, the king demanded?

00:03:42.771 --> 00:03:43.731
What did he look like?

00:03:44.421 --> 00:03:45.201
They replied.

00:03:45.471 --> 00:03:48.891
He was a hairy man and he wore
a leather belt around his waist.

00:03:49.881 --> 00:03:52.761
Elijah from Tishbe, the king exclaimed.

00:03:53.781 --> 00:03:57.501
Then he sent an army captain
with 50 soldiers to arrest him.

00:03:58.251 --> 00:04:00.231
They found him sitting on top of a hill.

00:04:00.801 --> 00:04:05.151
The captain said to him, man
of God, the king has commanded

00:04:05.156 --> 00:04:06.141
you to come down with us.

00:04:07.461 --> 00:04:13.761
But Elijah replied to the captain, if I
am a man of God, let fire come down from

00:04:13.761 --> 00:04:16.491
heaven and destroy you and your 50 men.

00:04:17.241 --> 00:04:21.591
Then fire fell from heaven
and killed them all.

00:04:22.611 --> 00:04:25.251
So the king sent another
captain with 50 men.

00:04:25.941 --> 00:04:30.801
The captain said to him, man of God, the
king demands that you come down at once.

00:04:31.491 --> 00:04:36.876
Elijah replied, if I am a man of
God, Let fire come down from heaven

00:04:37.056 --> 00:04:39.186
and destroy you and your 50 men.

00:04:40.266 --> 00:04:45.996
And again, the fire of God fell from
heaven and killed them all once more.

00:04:45.996 --> 00:04:51.186
The king sent a third captain with 50
men, but this time the captain went

00:04:51.186 --> 00:04:57.486
up the hill and fell to his knees
before Elijah, he pleaded with him, oh

00:04:57.486 --> 00:05:03.186
man of God, please spare my life and
the lives of these your 50 servants.

00:05:03.951 --> 00:05:07.941
See how the fire from heaven came
down and destroyed the first two

00:05:07.941 --> 00:05:11.091
groups, but now please spare my life.

00:05:12.441 --> 00:05:16.221
Then the angel of the Lord said
to Elijah, go down with him

00:05:16.491 --> 00:05:17.721
and don't be afraid of him.

00:05:18.501 --> 00:05:24.171
So Elijah got up and went with him
to the king, and Elijah said to the

00:05:24.171 --> 00:05:26.991
king, this is what the Lord says.

00:05:27.741 --> 00:05:32.301
Why did you send messengers to Baal
Zebu, the God of Akron to ask whether

00:05:32.301 --> 00:05:36.351
you will recover, is there no God
in Israel to answer your question.

00:05:37.191 --> 00:05:41.601
Therefore, because you have done this, you
will never leave the bed you are lying on.

00:05:42.501 --> 00:05:43.851
You will surely die.

00:05:45.021 --> 00:05:46.491
So Aah died.

00:05:46.701 --> 00:05:50.721
Just as the Lord had promised
through Elijah, since Eiah did

00:05:50.721 --> 00:05:55.701
not have a son to succeed him, his
brother, ham became the next king.

00:05:56.616 --> 00:06:00.546
This took place in the second
year of the Reign of Jehoram, son

00:06:00.546 --> 00:06:02.166
of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah.

00:06:03.966 --> 00:06:07.296
The rest of the events in a
Isaiah's reign and everything he

00:06:07.296 --> 00:06:11.046
did are recorded in the book of
the History of the Kings of Israel.

00:06:13.176 --> 00:06:16.026
This concludes today's
immerse reading experience.
