How did Rehoboam manage to lose most of his kingdom? - correct answer He
refused to cut taxes and threaten to raise them. The real reason the kingdom split was because of the
spiritual failure of his leadership. (pgs. 284, 625)
Why is Asa viewed as a good king but given a mixed review? - correct answer Asa
started his reign spritually strong. He removed idols and repaired the altar at the temple to start revival.
However, God sent a prophet to condemn him for his lack of faith when he trusted Ben-Hadad to attack
the N. Kingdom. He lost spiritual sensitivity, throwing the prophet in jail. pg. 286-287
How did Jehoshaphat show piety on the one hand but political naivete on the other? - correct answer
In piety, he went thru the country removing pagan shrines and sent teachers in the land teaching the
law. In naivete he arranged a poor marriage for his son with the daughter of Jezebel. He also agreed to
go into battle with Ahab although the prophets warned them not to. The prophet Jehu told him he
would be judged for helping the wicked because of this act. (pg. 287)
What is most memorable about Athaliah? - correct answer Daughter of Ahab and
Jezebel, she was like her mother in almost every way. After the murder of her son, she ordered the
murders of every remaining male in the royal family. pg.287,289
How did Joash bring hope to the Southern Kingdom? What did he do that caused him to be
assassinated? - correct answer Trained by the priests while in captivity, he began his
reign by eliminating the elements of pagan worship, eradicating the worship of Baal, and repairing the
temple so that the sacrificial system could be restored. Corrupt advisors lead the king's heart away from
God. Joash ordered the stoning of Zechariah but two men plotted and killed Joash as a result. pg. 290
In what way did Uzziah demonstrate spiritual foolishness? What were the consequences? - correct
answer He went into the temple to burn insense which was forbidden by anyone
other than the priests. God struck him with leprosy so that he could not enter the temple or perform his
royal duties. pg. 292
What is most memorable about Ahaz? - correct answer Ahaz is viewed as an evil
king and one of the worst. He turned from YHWH, when he closed Solomon's temple and built a temple
to worship the gods of Damascus.
, Compare and contrast Hezekiah with his father Ahaz, and with David. - correct answer
Hezekiah was as good as Ahaz, his father, was evil. (295) He ushered in spiritual revival in the land.
Unlike David, he was not a warrior. Overall, he is described as trusting the Lord, holding fast to him. This
is similar to David who made mistakes but had a heart for God. (298)
What was the key role of Isaiah in the Southern Kingdom? - correct answer He was
both prophet and historian. He saw the best and worst that the Southern Kingdom had to offer. His
writing highlights the national failure & spiritual apostasy by pointing out poor political leadership and
points to God's future work in the Messiah. He was killed by Hezekiah's son, Manasseh.
What key prophecies did the prophets of this period give regarding the Messiah? - correct answer
Isaiah prophecies about the virgin birth and his death, bearing the sins of the people, and his
resurrection. (300) Michah also prophecies that he would be from Bethlehem with "origins of old,"
suggesting that the Messiah would be more than a human being (301)
What is most memorable about Manasseh? - correct answer He was the worst king
of the Southern Kingdom. He was the opposite of his father, Hezekiah, taking up false worship and even
performing child sacrifices. He ordered the tree that Isaiah was hiding in to be cut down so that the
prophet was killed. When the Assyrians captured Jerusalem, he was taken with a hook in his nose into
captivity. He repented and was allowed to return to Jerusalem for his last few years. (302-303)
In what ways was Josiah the last hope for the Southern Kingdom? - correct answer
Like Manasseh, he became a king as a boy. He tried to bring back the religious reforms of his great-
grandfather, Hezekiah. His death marked the beginning of the end of the Southern Kingdom. (306)
Trace the decline and fall of the Southern Kingdom. - correct answer After the death
of Josiah, the next decades were marked with no strong king or leader. The prophets of this time
continue to speak of judgment coupled with God's compassion (307) The rise of the Babylonian empire
leads to 3 waves of exile and finally the destruction of Jerusalem. (309/313)
What are some reasons that the Exile was not as severe as it might have been? - correct answer
1.Exile was only designed as partial punishment. The Assyrians promised peace, food, and land to those
that surrendered. By spreading the exiles out they could breakdown local allegiances and still allow
exiles to be productive and organized (316) 2. Some of the people listened to the prophets so they were
promised that in their exile they would still prosper and be able to return after a time. 3. God blessed
the people while in exile because they followed his instructions. (316-317)
