Jehoash followed in the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit; and he did evil in the eyes of the Lord (2 Kings 13: 11, The Holy Bible). Amaziah tried to do what was right and succeeded but not as his father David had done. He was good just not good enough. Jeroboam the Second did evil in the eyes of the Lord and did not turn away from any of the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, which he had caused Israel to commit (2 Kings 14: 24, The Holy Bible). Azariah king of Judah did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father had done. Zechariah, Menahem, and Pekahiah all did evil eyes of the Lord. Israel and Judah are falling into war and on their way down the proverbial toilet was they have abandoned the covenant of God. Jotham did what was right, a small grace to Judah. Ahaz and Hoshea both did evil in the sight of the Lord. Ahaz going as far as sacrificing his own son to a false god of fire. “He walked in the ways of the kings of Israel and even sacrificed his son in the fire, following the detestable ways of the Israelites” (2 Kings 16:3, The Holy Bible). Hezekiah
