BBE summary for : 2 Chronicles 21
Summary: 2 Chronicles 21 describes the reign of Jehoram, son of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah. Upon ascending to the throne, Jehoram eliminated his brothers and some officials to secure his power, demonstrating a departure from his father's faithful leadership. He married Athaliah, the daughter of Ahab, which led to the influence of idolatry in Judah, as she promoted the worship of Baal. The chapter highlights Jehoram's wickedness, noting that he abandoned the ways of the Lord and misled his people. The narrative also reveals God's judgment on Jehoram’s reign due to his unfaithfulness. The prophet Elijah sends a letter to Jehoram, warning him about the consequences of his actions and predicting the suffering he would face, including disease and death. Ultimately, Jehoram’s reign ends in failure and disgrace, as he suffers from a painful illness and receives no honor after his death. The themes of judgment, the consequences of turning away from God, and the importance of faithful leadership are prominent throughout the chapter, serving as a cautionary tale against abandoning divine principles.
