Discussion Questions:[2. Discussion Questions are online]

Old Testament

  1. Jehoash attempted to follow God. Why did he permit worship in “high places,” in violation of God’s law? 2 Kings 12:2-3.
  2. Why was God angry enough to allow the Assyrians to conquer Israel? Do you see any parallels between the behavior in 2 Kings 17, and our modern society?
