Summary: "The Expositor's Bible: The Second Book of Kings" by F. W. Farrar is a religious text written in the late 19th century. This volume aims to provide an in-depth commentary and exposition on the Second Book of Kings from the Old Testament, focusing on the narratives surrounding the reigns of various kings of Israel and Judah and the prophetic activities of Elijah and Elisha. The work seeks to illuminate the historical and theological significance of these biblical accounts, making it a valuable resource for scholars, clergy, and those interested in biblical studies. At the start of this volume, the author introduces King Ahaziah of Israel, depicting him as a weak and troubled ruler whose reign is marked by disaster and idolatry. As Ahaziah suffers the consequences of his actions, including a serious injury after falling from his palace, he turns to the Philistine god Baal-Zebub for guidance, prompting the prophet Elijah to confront him. The narrative introduces the conflict between the true worship of Jehovah and the prevailing pagan practices, emphasizing the moral and spiritual lessons inherent in these historical events. This opening section sets the tone for a critical exploration of the prophetic tradition in ancient Israel and the implications of leadership and faithfulness.
