45/ What did Amaziah do to make God angry ?

46/ How did Amaziah die ?

Joash was influenced by the persuasions and the beckonings of princes of Judah.....he fell for their flatteries. Here was his downfall:

17 Now after the death of Jehoiada came the princes of Judah, and made obeisance to the king. Then the king hearkened unto them.

God sent judgement in the form of the Syrians:

23 And it came to pass at the end of the year, that the host of Syria came up against him: and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the princes of the people from among the people, and sent all the spoil of them unto the king of Damascus.

24 For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men, and the Lord delivered a very great host into their hand, because they had forsaken the Lord God of their fathers. So they executed judgment against Joash.

Amaziah angered God by doing this:

14 Now it came to pass, after that Amaziah was come from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed down himself before them, and burned incense unto them.

Amaziah died tragically and shamefully:

27 Now after the time that Amaziah did turn away from following the Lord they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem; and he fled to Lachish: but they sent to Lachish after him, and slew him there.

~God struck King Uzziah with leprosy

~Re; King Jotham:

2 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, according to all that his father Uzziah did:

3 He built the high gate of the house of the Lord, and on the wall of Ophel he built much.

4 Moreover he built cities in the mountains of Judah, and in the forests he built castles and towers.

5 He fought also with the king of the Ammonites, and prevailed against them. And the children of Ammon gave him the same year an hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. So much did the children of Ammon pay unto him, both the second year, and the third.

6 So Jotham became mighty, because he prepared his ways before the Lord his God.

51/ Why did Hezekiah invite the people of the northern tribes of Israel to come to Jerusalem ?

Brinny,

By the time of Hezekiah the northern kingdom of Israel no longer existed. Samaria was now part of a huge Assyrian Empire.

Hezekiah invited the northern tribes to Jerusalem to eat the seven day Passover Feast.

After eating the Passover Feast many from the northern tribes of Israel returned to worshiping the one true God of Israel.

Many smashed their idols of Baal when they returned home, and cut down the groves to Baal.
