Last week we learned that one of the reasons Jonah was so upset to preach to Nineveh is because he knew they were part of the very Empire who would one day bring destruction to his people. That is exactly what happened one generation later. Assyria came in, defeated the North, and deported them to the extent that they would never return to the land again! Throughout the ‘kingdom period’ of both the North and the South we see that both the kings David and Jeroboam cast their shadows over these respective kingdoms for many generations. And it was ultimately the influence of Jeroboam, and his ways, which led to the destruction of both kingdoms. Join us as we dig into the latter period of each kingdom!
