Verse 16 is found in chapter 17 of 2 Kings. The narrator interrupts the political sequence to explain why Israel went into exile. He lists the rejection of the Lord, idolatry, the construction of worship sites, imitation of the nations, and refusal to listen to the prophets. The fall of Samaria is thus presented as a theological event before being merely military. God had repeatedly warned the people through his prophets, but Israel persisted in its practices. Exile is interpreted as the accumulated consequence of a prolonged breach of the covenant.
