698 BC Hezekiah dies. Evil Manasseh, his son, installs idolatry and kills Isaiah and other prophets. A psalmist wonders why the wicked prosper. God promises calamity and in 677 BC uses Assyria to humble the king. Manasseh finally repents, God restores his reign and Manasseh now orders Judah to worship the Lord. In 643 BC, on his death, Amon, his son, restores idolatry, reigning for two years until murdered. Then his son, eight-year-old Josiah reigns. At 16 he seeks God and begins to purge the nation of its idols – pulverizing them.
Note: Manasseh was Judah’s longest reigning king (55 years) and the worst, though he had a godly father. He led the people into gross idolatry until he repented.
