And the people of the land slew all them that had conspired against king Amon; and the people of the land made Josiah his son king in his stead.
A verse can bring hope. Share this message of faith with someone you care about.
Verse 24 is found in chapter 21 of 2 Kings. Amon succeeds Manasseh and continues his religious practices. His own servants conspire against him and assassinate him, but the people kill the conspirators and place Josiah on the throne. The rapid succession again shows the political instability accompanying unfaithfulness. At the same time, the people preserve the dynastic line. The episode prepares Josiah’s arrival, whose reform will represent one of the final great opportunities for religious renewal before Jerusalem’s definitive judgment.
