About this episode

In this Bible Story, we learn about the rise and fall of Joash who began his rule as a young child, growing under the love and care of the high priest. However, when the priest dies, Joash’s heart grows sour and against the things of God. He causes the people to stumble, and is ultimately remembered for his wickedness. This story is inspired by 2 Kings 12 & 2 Chronicles 24. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.

Today's Bible verse is 2 Chronicles 24:19 from the King James Version.

Episode 141: The rulers of Israel were trapped in a cycle of wickedness and self-worship. King Jehoahaz, who saw how his wickedness was causing oppression and military failure of Israel, repented before God, seeking redemption for his people. Yet once God gave him and his people peace, he returned to his wicked ways. Despite their wickedness, Elisha loved the people of Israel and their kings. And before he died, Elisha gave Jehoash one last prophecy.
