Is
Isaiah 7:14 and Matthew 1:21-23 speaking of the SAME event? Part Two
By: Z'kharYah
Yisra'El
2 Kings 16
1:
In the seventeenth year of Pekah the son of Remaliah Ahaz
the son of Jotham king of Judah began to reign.
2:
Twenty years old was Ahaz when he began to reign, and reigned
sixteen years in Jerusalem,and did not that which was right
in the sight of Yahweh his God, like David his father.
3:
But he walked in the way of the kings of Yisra'El, yea, and made his
son
to pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the heathen,
whom Yahweh
cast out from before the children of Yisra'El.
4:
And he sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places,
and on the hills, and under every green tree.
5:
Then Rezin king of Syria and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Yisra'El
came
up
to Jerusalem to war: and they besieged Ahaz, but could not overcome
him.
Now, right here, 2 Kings 16 verse 5 is speaking of the
same event as Isaiah
7, verse 1.
Isaiah
7, verse 1
1: And
it came to pass in the days of Ahaz the son of Jotham, the son of
Uzziah, king of Judah,
that
Rezin the king of Syria, and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of
Yisra'el, went up
toward
Jerusalem to war against it, but could not prevail against it.
Back to 2 Kings 16
6:
At that time Rezin king of Syria recovered Elath to Syria, and drave
the Jews from Elath:
and the Syrians came to Elath, and dwelt there unto this day.
7:
So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, saying, I am
thy servant
and thy son: come up, and save me out of the hand of the king of Syria,
and out of the hand of the king of Yisra'El,
which rise up against me.
Here, Ahaz ask Tiglathpileser king of
Assyria, to
save him out of the hand of the king of Syria, and out of the hand of
the king of Yisra'El.
To save him from Rezin,
the king of Syria,
and Pekah, the son of
Remaliah, king
of
Yisra'El.
Remember,
Pekah, king
of
Yisra'el, the whole 10
tribes was eventually conquered, totally
destroyed, enslaved and exiled by the ancient Assyrian Empire
around 722-720 B.C.E.,
under king Sargon II, LOST to history and was
NEVER heard from again,
even to this VERY day. That's why they are called, "The Ten Lost Tribes
of Yisra'el" or "Lost
Tribes of Yisra'el."
The Kingdom of Judah, or
Southern
Kingdom, existed as an independent state from about 930 B.C.E. until 586 B.C.E. when it
was conquered by the
Babylonian Empire, under king Nebuchadnezzar II. In the wake of the
conquest, with
Jerusalem seized, and the first Temple destroyed, much of the
population of the Kingdom
of Judah was dispersed throughout the Babylonian Empire. 720
B.C.E. - 586 B.C.E. You see, 134 years
later, The
Kingdom of Judah, or
Southern
Kingdom, was conquered by the
Babylonian Empire, under king Nebuchadnezzar II.
8:
And Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house
of Yahweh,
and in the treasures of the king's house, and sent it for a present to
the king of Assyria.
9:
And the king of Assyria hearkened unto him: for the king of Assyria
went up against Damascus,
and took it, and carried the people of it captive to Kir, and slew
Rezin.
Ok, verse 9 shows, that,
Ahaz get his wish,
and the king of Assyria
went up against
Damascus, and took it, and carried
the people of it captive to Kir, and SLEW REZIN. "Kir", is a fortress; a place in
Assyria. The Assyrians
SLEW REZIN, and carried
the people of it captive to Assyria. Don't forget, Rezin is the King of Syria,
and head of
Damascus; Isaiah 7
verse 8.
10:
And king Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglathpileser king of Assyria,
and saw an altar that was at Damascus: and king Ahaz sent to Urijah the
priest
the fashion of the altar, and the pattern of it, according to all the
workmanship thereof.
11:
And Urijah the priest built an altar according to all that king Ahaz
had
sent from Damascus: so Urijah the priest made it against king Ahaz came
from Damascus.
12:
And when the king was come from Damascus, the king saw the altar:
and the king approached to the altar, and offered thereon.
13:
And he burnt his burnt offering and his meat offering, and poured his
drink offering,
and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings, upon the altar.
14:
And he brought also the brazen altar, which was before Yahweh,
from the
forefront of the house, from between the altar and the house
of Yahweh,
and put it on the north side of the altar.
15:
And king Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying, Upon the great altar
burn
the morning burnt offering, and the evening meat offering, and the
king's burnt sacrifice,
and his meat offering, with the burnt offering of all the people of the
land,
and their meat offering, and their drink offerings; and sprinkle upon
it all
the blood of the burnt offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice:
and the brazen altar shall be for me to enquire by.
16:
Thus did Urijah the priest, according to all that king Ahaz commanded.
17:
And king Ahaz cut off the borders of the bases, and removed the laver
from off them;
and took down the sea from off the brazen oxen that were under it, and
put it upon the pavement of stones.
18:
And the covert for the sabbath that they had built in the house, and
the king's
entry without, turned he from the house of Yahweh
for the king of Assyria.
19:
Now the rest of the acts of Ahaz which he did, are they not written
in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Yes, it is;
2
Chronicles, Chapters 28
20:
And Ahaz slept with his
fathers, and was buried with his fathers
in the city of David: and Hezekiah his son reigned in his stead.
You see, Ahaz died, a
natural death,
and was buried in the city of David. Don't forget,
Immanuel was born before
Ahaz died. Was The Christ,
of the new testament, born before
Ahaz died?
Isaiah 7
8:
For the head of Syria is Damascus, and the head of Damascus is Rezin;
and within threescore
and five years shall Ephraim be broken, that it
be not a people.
Within THREESCORE and FIVE
years, (65
years), shall Ephraim be broken, that it be not a people.
Is Christ going to
be born
within THREESCORE and
FIVE years (65
years) of when this was said? I DON'T
THINK SO!
10:
Moreover Yahweh spake again unto Ahaz, saying,
13:
And he said, Hear ye now, O house of David; Is it a small thing for you
to weary men, but will ye weary my Elohim also?
14:
Therefore Yahweh himself shall give YOU a sign; Behold, a virgin
shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.
Yahweh said, he will give
"YOU" a
sign....who is "YOU?" "O HOUSE OF DAVID," in verse 13, and in verse
10, he's speaking to
Ahaz. Yahweh said,
that, this SIGN
is
going to prove that HE is with "AHAZ and the HOUSE OF DAVID," NOT with
Mary and Joseph.
Now let me ask a
question....Is
this a SIGN about Christ
being born, some, 720-790 years later, to be
the SAVIOR of the
WORLD, or is this a SIGN to Ahaz, and the house of
David, that Ephraim, (Pekah, kingdom
of Yisra'el,) will be broken, that it will not be a people, within 65
YEARS, in THEIR
lifetime? Verse 8 says,
"(Ephraim,
kingdom of
Yisra'el,) will be broken, that IT
will not be a people. (within
65
YEARS, IN THEIR LIFETIME!)
Really,
does it take
all
this information to prove, that, Isaiah
7:14 and Matthew
1:21-23 is NOT
speaking of the SAME
event?
HalleluYAH ( Praise
the mighty YAH)
YAH
is
Righteous!
Shalom.
