  1. As it is written in the Torah of Moses.<\/em> Amaziah deals with his father\u2019s murderers by \u201cthe Book\u201d: \u201cBut he did not put to death the children of the assassins, in accordance with what is written in the Book of the Teaching of Moses, where the LORD commanded, \u2018Parents shall not be put to death for children, nor children be put to death for parents; a person shall be put to death only for his own crime\u2019\u201d (verse 6).\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. A call to war?<\/em> The conversation between Amaziah and Joash in verses 8-10 is more poetical than political. The war is much less poetic.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Jerusalem<\/em>. Neither unified not unifying. This is the first and only time that the Kingdom of Israel attacked and damaged Jerusalem during the course of the conflict between the two kingdoms. Two chapters down the road, there will be another Israelite attempt to besiege Jerusalem, but it won\u2019t succeed.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. 41 years, 5 verses<\/em>. The glorious kingdom of Jeroboam (son of Joash) gets only 5 verses of coverage here. But in another 196 chapters, the prophet Amos will give us a little peek into what was going inside this Israelite kingdom.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. \u00bd + \u00bd = 1 (whole).<\/em> The northern kingdom (Israel) reaches all the way to Lebo-hamath, while the southern kingdom (Judah) will reach Eilat. Together they comprise the maximal borders of Biblical Israel.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","image":{"ID":86314,"id":86314,"title":"Points to
