132 | Jehu's revolution (2 Kings 9-10)

Picture the northern kingdom of Israel around 841 BC. It's the ninth century before Christ, and the nation is in deep trouble. For decades, the house of Ahab has ruled—and under their reign, Baal worship has moved from the fringes into the very center of Israel's religious life.

They seized land from anyone who got in their way. They abandoned the covenant with Yahweh that made Israel, Israel.Source:https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PXACCEU8qgIKq9ChLa6YOQZ_kSBWfK_T/view?usp=sharing
