TSK · 2 Chronicles 28:21

Hezekiah gave him all the silver in the LORD’s temple and in the treasuries of the royal palace.

Asa took all the silver and gold that was left in the treasuries of the LORD’s temple and of the royal palace and sent it to King Ben Hadad of Syria, ruler in Damascus, along with this message:

Like a bad tooth or a foot out of joint, so is confidence in an unfaithful person at the time of trouble.

When Ephraim saw his sickness and Judah saw his wound, then Ephraim turned to Assyria, and begged its great king for help. But he will not be able to heal you! He cannot cure your wound!
