II Kings Chapter 13 on Teaching People to Sin Against G-d

Verses 2 and 11 Has Been Repeated All Over The Book

A very clear indication that those who teach falsehood – worshiping Jesus, Triune – Trinity or 3-in-1 G-d may not be forgiven.

You disagree?

Please find a verse where G-d spoke of Himself as Jesus is His Name, that He is 3-in-1 G-d!

*It is nowhere to be found except in paganism or idol worship empires like the Greeks and Romans.

“Jehoahaz, King of Israel”
“Jehoash King of Israel”
“The Last Miracle of Elisha”
“Elisha Died”

In the twenty-third year of Jehoash son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz son of Jehu became king over Israel in Samaria, [and reigned] for seventeen years.
13:1
He did what was evil in the eyes of Hashem; he went after the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, that he caused Israel to sin; he did not turn aside from them.
13:2
So Hashem became angry with Israel, and He delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Aram, and into the hand of Hazael’s son Ben-hadad, all the days [of Jehoahaz].
13:3
Jehoahaz pleaded before Hashem, and Hashem hearkened to him, for He had seen the oppression of Israel, for the king of Aram had oppressed them.
:4
Jehoahaz lay with his forefathers, and they buried him in Samaria; his son Jehoash reigned in his place.
:9
He did what was evil in the eyes of Hashem; he did not turn away from all the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat that he caused Israel to sin, he went in that [path].
:11
Jehoash lay with his forefathers, and [his son] Jeroboam sat on his throne. Jehoash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
:13
Elisha became ill with the disease from which he was to die. Jehoash, king of Israel, went down to [visit] him, and he cried before him and said, “Father! Father! Israel’s chariot and horsemen!”
:14
Then Elisha died and they buried him. …
:20
Some people were burying a man, and just then they saw the troop coming, so they threw the man into Elisha’s grave. The man’s body rolled over and touched the bones of Elisha, and [the man] came back to life and rose up on his feet.
:21
Hazael king of Aram oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.
:22
But Hashem showed them grace and had mercy on them, and He was attentive to them, because of His covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and He did not wish to destroy them, so He did not cast them away from His presence up to now.
:23
Jehoash son of Jehoahaz returned and took back from Ben-hadad son of Hazael the cities that [Ben-hadad] had taken in battle from his father Jehoahaz. Jehoash struck him three times, and retrieved the cities of Israel.
:25

1In the twenty-third year of Joash the son of Ahaziah the king of Judah, Jehoahaz the son of Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria seventeen years.
2And he did what was evil in the eyes of the Lord; and he followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat which he caused Israel to sin; he did not turn away from it.
3And the Lord became angry with Israel, and He delivered them into the hand of Hazael the king of Aram and into the hand of Ben-Hadad the son of Hazael all the days.
4And Jehoahaz prayed before the Lord; and the Lord hearkened to his prayer, for He saw Israel’s oppression, for the king of Aram oppressed them.
5And the Lord gave Israel a savior and they went free from under Aram’s hands, and the children of Israel dwelt in their dwelling places as yesterday and the day before.
6However, they did not turn away from the sins of the house of Jeroboam which he made Israel sin; they persisted in them; and also the Asherah stood in Samaria.
7For he had not left to Jehoahaz but fifty riders and ten chariots, for the king of Aram had destroyed them and made them like dust to trample.
8And the rest of the events of Jehoahaz and all that he did and his might, are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
9And Jehoahaz slept with his forefathers, and they buried him in Samaria; and his son Joash reigned in his stead.
10In the thirty-seventh year of Joash the king of Judah, Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz reigned over Israel in Samaria sixteen years.
11And he did what was evil in the eyes of the Lord; he did not turn away from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which he had made Israel sin; he persisted in it.
12And the rest of the events of Joash and all that he did and his mighty deeds, how he fought with Amaziah the king of Judah, are written in the book of chronicles of the kings of Israel.
13And Joash slept with his forefathers, and Jeroboam sat on his throne, and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.
14Now Elisha became ill with the illness he was to die of; and Joash the king of Israel went down to him and wept on his face, and said, “My master, my master, Israel’s chariots and riders!”
15And Elisha said to him, “Fetch a bow and arrows.” And he fetched him a bow and arrows.
16And he said to the king of Israel, “Place your hand on the bow,” and he placed his hand; and Elisha placed his hands on the king’s hands.
17And he said, “Open the window to the east,” and he opened it; and Elisha said, “Shoot!” And he shot. And he said, “[This is] an arrow of salvation from the Lord, and an arrow of victory over Aram, and you shall strike the Arameans in Aphek until they are completely annihilated.”
18And he said, “Take the arrows.” And he took them. And he said to the king of Israel, “Strike at the ground,” and he struck three times and stopped.
19And the man of God was incensed against him, and he said, “You should have struck five or six times, then you would strike the Arameans until you would annihilate them completely, but now, you shall strike the Arameans but three times.”
20And Elisha died and they buried him, and Moabite bands would invade the land at the beginning of the year.
21And it came to pass that they were burying a man, and behold, they saw the band, and they threw the man into Elisha’s grave, and he went and touched Elisha’s bones, and he came to life and stood up on his feet.
22Now Hazael the king of Aram oppressed Israel all the days of Jehoahaz.
23And the Lord was gracious and merciful to them, and he turned to them for the sake of His covenant with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and He did not want to destroy them, and He did not cast them off from His presence until now.
24And Hazael died, and his son Ben-Hadad reigned in his stead.
25And Jehoash the son of Jehoahaz returned and took the cities from the hand of Ben-Hadad the son of Hazael, which he had taken from the hand of His father Jehoahaz in battle; Joash beat him three times and recovered the cities of Israel.

Bible reading in the form of Scripture in pictures can have a profound impact on those who may have never read a chapter in the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament). Viewing pivotal verses in a visual context can deepen one’s understanding of the text and provide a unique perspective. The images may help to illustrate important themes and messages that may not have been as easily grasped through standard reading. Additionally, this method can be particularly beneficial for those who struggle with traditional reading methods or for those who are more visually inclined. The power of visual storytelling has been utilized for centuries, and when paired with the timeless words of Scripture, it has the potential to bring new life and meaning to the ancient text. Ultimately, whatever method one chooses to engage with the Bible, the most important thing is to seek a deeper understanding of God’s word, and to apply it to our lives in a meaningful way.
