Read 2 Kings 17.1-6. In 17.1-41: The fall of Israel. In verse 2: It is not clear why Hoshea judged to be less evil than his predecessors. In verse 4: Hosea 7.11 may reflect the prophet Hosea's judgment of the foolishness of Hoshea's revolt against Assyria. In verse 5: The fact that Samaria held out for three years is a tribute to its defenses. In verse 6: This verse marks the end of the northern kingdom of Israel. The places listed here to which the people of Israel deported were all close to the Assyrian homeland. Comments or Questions..
