列王紀下 17:27 RCUVTS

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 2 Kings 17:27

Carry one of the priests ...; let them go and dwell there, and let him teach - The double change of number is curious; but rise text needs no emendation. The priest would require to be accompanied by assistants, who would “go and dwell,” but would not be qualified to “teach.” The arcana of the worship would be known to none excepting the priests who had ministered at the two national sanctuaries of Dan and Bethel. read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - 2 Kings 17:27

2 Kings 17:27. Then the king of Assyria commanded, Carry thither one of the priests That is, one of the chief priests, with others under his inspection and direction, as may be gathered from the following words, where it is said of the same person or persons, Let them go, &c, and then, Let him teach, &c. Nor is it probable that one priest could suffice for the instruction of the inhabitants of so many and distant districts. read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 2 Kings 17:1-41

End of the northern kingdom (17:1-41)Some time after Shalmaneser V succeeded Tiglath-pileser III as king of Assyria, the Israelite king Hoshea tried to show himself independent of Assyria by refusing to pay the annual tribute. He thought that with Egyptian support his rebellion would be successful. Shalmaneser put an end to such hopes by invading Israel and besieging Samaria. After three years Israel’s defence collapsed, and Shalmaneser’s successor, Sargon II, captured Samaria and carried off... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - 2 Kings 17:27

ONE OF THE DEPORTED PRIESTS OF ISRAEL WAS SENT BACK TO TELL THEM HOW TO WORSHIP JEHOVAH"Then the king of Assyria commanded, saying, Carry thither one of the priests whom ye brought from thence; and let him go and dwell there, and let him teach them the law of the god of the land. So one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and dwelt in Bethel, and taught them how they should fear Jehovah."There was just one thing wrong with this arrangement. The priests of Northern Israel... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 2 Kings 17:24-41

The results of the captivity 17:24-41The immediate result of the captivity (2 Kings 17:24-33) was twofold. The Assyrians deported many Israelites to other places in the Assyrian Empire, and they imported other people from the empire into the newly formed Assyrian province that they called Samaria (2 Kings 17:24). The king who did this was probably Sargon II (722-705 B.C.). Shalmaneser died either during or shortly after the siege of Samaria. These imported foreigners eventually intermarried... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Kings 17:1-41

The Fall of SamariaThis chapter relates the reign of Hoshea. He intrigued with Egypt and rebelled against Assyria; and Samaria, in consequence, was taken and its people carried into captivity, their place being filled by a mixed population.1. Hoshea] Hoshea, unlike Pekah (2 Kings 16:5), belonged to the faction in Samaria which relied on Assyrian support, and Tiglath-pileser, in his inscriptions, states that after he had slain Pekah, he ’appointed’ Hoshea to rule over Israel, and received as... read more

HOSHEA, AND THE FALL OF THE NORTHERN KINGDOMB.C. 734-7252 Kings 17:1-41"As for Samaria, her king is cut off as the foam upon: the water."Hosea 10:7As a matter of convenience, we follow our English Bible in calling the prophet by the name Hosea, and the nineteenth, last, and best king of Israel Hoshea. The names, however, are identical, and mean "Salvation"- the name borne by Joshua also in his earlier days. In the irony of history the name of the last king of Ephraim was thus identical with... read more
