Contextual Overview
1 Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king. And he ruled for sixteen years in Jerusalem. He did not do what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father David had done. 2 But he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel. He also made objects to look like the false gods of Baal. 3 He burned special perfume in the valley of Ben-Hinnom. And he burned his sons in fire, following the hated ways of the nations whom the Lord had driven out before the sons of Israel. 4 He gave gifts in worship and burned special perfume on the high places, on the hills, and under every green tree. 5 So the Lord his God gave him into the hand of the king of Syria. The Syrians won the war against Ahaz and carried away many of his people to Damascus. He was also given into the hand of the king of Israel, who killed many of his people in the war.
