TSK · Amos 7:10

He built temples on the high places and appointed as priests common people who were not Levites.

When Ahab saw Elijah, he said to him,“Is it really you, the one who brings disaster on Israel?”

Now you are declaring that you will resist the LORD’s rule through the Davidic dynasty. You have a huge army, and bring with you the gold calves that Jeroboam made for you as gods.

Jeremiah is Flogged and Put in A Cell Now Pashhur son of Immer heard Jeremiah prophesy these things. He was the priest who was chief of security in the LORD’s temple.

How dare you claim the LORD’s authority to prophesy such things! How dare you claim his authority to prophesy that this temple will become like Shiloh and that this city will become an uninhabited ruin!” Then all the people crowded around Jeremiah in the LORD’s temple.

But he only got as far as the Benjamin Gate. There an officer in charge of the guards named Irijah, who was the son of Shelemiah and the grandson of Hananiah, stopped him. He seized Jeremiah and said,“You are deserting to the Babylonians!”

The Israelites hate anyone who arbitrates at the city gate; they despise anyone who speaks honestly.

They began to accuse him, saying,“We found this man subverting our nation, forbidding us to pay the tribute tax to Caesar and claiming that he himself is Christ, a king.”

Stephen is Killed When they heard these things, they became furious and ground their teeth at him.
