We completed the book of Isaiah in our last episode and now we\u2019re back in the narrative histories of 2 Chronicles and 2 Kings. Hezekiah\u2019s son Manasseh takes the throne and turns the good of his father\u2019s kingdom upside down by participating in every kind of spiritual evil imaginable. As such is the case, God says through his prophets that he will clean Jerusalem out like a bowl, turning it upside down. 2 Chronicles records that Manasseh is taken captive by Assyria later in life, at which point he repents and turns to the Lord for help. Before his death, he turns Judah back to the Lord, but only in partial obedience. His son Amon will take the throne after him, but will only reign for two years, repeating his father\u2019s mistakes.
