2 Kings is the finale of 1 Kings—a long line of Israel’s constant disobedience and moments of return. There are a few things that really stand out to me from these books…
~ The story of Jehosaphat, who served God so faithfully, who sought God in times of danger and won incredible victories—but who chose to ally himself with Achab & his family, which ultimately ruined Jehosaphat’s family.
~ The story of Josias, who cleaned the land and brought everyone back to God—but who was told He must punish, and who was given death as an escape.
~ The individual choices the kings made. There were those like Ezéchias, whose father was one of the most wicked—if not THE wickedest—and who yet was one of the very best kings of Israel, following God with all his heart. Yet his son Manassé chose to be almost as wicked as his grandfather…
~ The high places. So many times God says, “he was faithful to the Lord like David his father… YET THE HIGH PLACES WERE NOT REMOVED.”
~ The way people can be flawed and yet God calls them righteous.
~ How graciously He gives second chances, warns, forgives…
There’s so much to learn about life and character and relationships with God here…

kings 2:11
As they were walking along and talking together, suddenly a chariot of fire with horses of fire appeared and separated the two of them, and Elijah went up into heaven in a whirlwind

The downward spiral of the now split kingdom continues due to sin and rebellion against a thrice holy God. The wicked kings of Israel and the some good/some bad kings of Judah get their comeuppance and the holiness of God is shown as God is no respecters of persons. What do I mean? God doesn't play favorites. If Israel/Judah sins they have to answer to God like any heathen nation would. This, of course, does not abrogate the promises of God concerning Israel's ownership of the land it just goes to show God deals with sin regardless of the sinner.
