Welcome to Tarradimachio me with the O you women's initiative. My name is Lynn Kraft and today we'll be learning Malachim Bet, Parak Yudzain, chapter 17. In the last parak in parak, Tutsaiin, chapter 16, we learned to the reign of Achas, an evil king in Mahathirah who invented Usher into the region in order to get help in ending the siege over Yurshal that had been led by Rizin, the king of Aram and Pekhahrau al-I'm al-Iam and al-Iam and al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm al-I'm its king, Ritzen. In today's parake in Parakey at Zion, chapter 17, Tigla Palassar is now unfortunately going to set his sights upon the next country, immediately to the south of Aram, Mahkha Urausel. This is going to be the last parak in our safer that discusses Mahal Ustirall as it describes its downfall, and unfortunately its ultimate destruction. In so Kim al-Thrubet, in verses, we are introduced to the last king of Mahal Ii'i al, He became the king in the 12th year of Ahaz's reign and he ruled for nine years. When describing his religious status, the Passeh actually starts out with its standard protocol and describing the Kings of Machahy Israel but then veers from it in a significant way. Vayas Harab Ane Ashem, he did evil in the eyes of Ashem, which is something familiar to us unfortunately when describing the Kings of Israel. But then the Passeahyla Khr al-un al-Ih al-Ih al-Ih al-Ih al-Ih al-Ih al-Ihah. that while Hosehueh a la was not a great king, he was not as bad as his predecessors were. But what does that mean, right? In what specific way was Hosehaya been Eelba not as bad as the kings who came before him? And so the Cedar Olam Raba explains that during Hosehaya and Ela's reign, the king of Ashor came in and removed the eggly Zahov, the golden calves from Beel and Dan. These were of the golden cows at the golden calves that had been placed there at the beginning of the beginning, until now. The, the golden Cajal had no way of worshiping a Shem anywhere within the borders of Mahathustra L anymore. And therefore the measures explains, Otashah a Kavansha, Kavansha, Kavansha, Kavansha, Kavanshah, who shehah al-Aha, she'll have been al-Lotha al-Lotlai and that they shouldn't go up to Yuru Shalai. And the proof that measures brings for this is actually from Aripasukuzuk. Because instead of Kuzukazukazukalak, because instead of, hearing Hosehyahya bin al-A to your Ava binhah to sin by having them worship Hashem and Beedal and Dan, as the text does for almost every other king in Machu Kyu Kyu Kyi Israel, he is instead described as not being as bad as his predecessors. So that must mean that he did not lead them to sin by worshiping Haseh I'm Danh al-And Dan, as Jorhaz al-Anda, and done, as the restat and the rest of the rest of the rest of the rest of the predecessors did, and the predecessors did. first time since Mahal Ustral was created. And this understanding of Ocheah Ben Ela is likely also based on the Pussock-In debrehehianmen Bet, Paraklamid Pussak Aleph, Chapter 30, 1, in which we're told that Kreskyahu, who was Achas's son who rains in Mahuahuahu who was Aha's son during the rest of Oshehah Ben Ela's reigns invited the people of Bazu alah's invitation, to partakeel, and the pasti, and the pastu al-a, and the pastak in the pastak, and the pastu al-a, and the pastak, and the pastak, and the pastak, and the pastu al-a, and the pastak, and the pastak, and the pastak, and the pastak, and the pastak, and the pastak, and the pastak, and the pastak, and the pastak, and the pastu al-a for the first time since the days of Schlumo. But this could have only happened with Northern Royal Sanction. And so in this way, Oceh Ab and Eilah was not as bad as the kings who preceded him. But then we're lost with another question, because if Ocehah and Elah wasn't as bad as his predecessors were, why then did the Gullet, did the exile occur during his reign? And so the alshirch, that is because until now, the sin of Benesra is not going down to the Behta Mictas to worship Mictas to worship themselves, to worship themselves, and the king themselves, and the king themselves. been Israel from going to the betamikdash for all of these years. But now that Oceh Aben-Ela removed the obstacle to their going to the betamikdash, and explicitly gave them permission to go, when most of them still chose themselves not to go, the sin transitioned from an Avon yachir, a sin of an individual, to an avon-rabim, a sin of the entire community, and that's why they were exiled and destroyed, specifically during Hocheab and ala's reign, because almost the entire kingdom was now guiltytash, which, which, which, which, which, which, which is, which is, which is, which is, which is, which is, which is, which is, which is, which is, which is, which is, which is, which is, which is, which is form of a Votizara since it involves foreign worship of God for which they deserve the ultimate punishment.
