Scripture Reading: 2 Kings 17:13
In today's scripture reading, God reveals that House of Judah (Benjamin, Levi and Judah) also committed the same sins as did the nation of the other ten tribes: the House of Israel. Many were the prophets God had sent to both nations of Israel in an attempt to turn them from their many sins. This was addressed to Israelites only. It was not addressed to any other nation or nations. It was a racial statement.
14 prophets sent to the House of Israel:
- A man of God (1 Kings 13:1-21)
- Abijah (1 Kings 14:1-18)
- Jehu (1 Kings 16:1-4)
- Elijah (1 Kings 17:1-2; 2 Kings 2:11)
- Elisha (1 Kings 19:19-21; 2 Kings 2:1-13, 25)
- An unknown prophet (1 Kings 20:13-14, 22)
- A man of God (1 Kings 20:28)
- A son of the prophets (1 Kings 20:35-42)
- Micaiah (1 Kings 22:17-28)
- A son of the prophets (2 Kings 9:1-10)
- Jehu, the king (2 Kings 10:30)
- Jonah (2 Kings 14:25)
- Iddo (2 Chronicles 9:29)
- Oded (2 Chronicles 28:9-15)
