Follow the Four (4)

The 66 chapters of Isaiah BEGINS with 4-Generations (father to son) -- Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz,

Hezekiah. We note that Hezekiah wasn't the last King of Judah, altho it was during his reign

that the Northern Kingdom of Israel was carried away, and 4 chapters in Isaiah, 36-39, furnish

us further details about Hezekiah. For one, he mandated a tremendous Passover, although in

the second month instead of the first, and 2K18:5 declares him to be a remarkable king unlike

any other..


When we continue the father-to-son trail, it continues: Hezekiah, Manasseh, Amon, Josiah,

and this Josiah ALSO celebrates a notable Passover, 2K23:22, and is ALSO described as a

'special' king, 2K23:25. He leads the way to the 'Carrying away to Babylon, and the end of the

dynasty of David and Kings of Judah: Josiah, Jehoiakim, Jeconiah, Assir. Yes, we know about

Zedekiah being set as the last king, but he wasn't in the father-to-son line, even though of the

House of Judah.


Gen15:16 "But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the

Amorites is not yet full". The sons of Jacob included Levi (3rd son of Leah), so the 4-

Generations would be Levi, Kohath, Amram, Moses.
