Verse numbers not
included requested by Pastor Ben.
2 KINGS 24:18-20 NIV
“Zedekiah was twenty-one years old when he became king, and he
reigned in Jerusalem eleven years….
He did evil in the eyes of the Lord,
just as Jehoiakim had done.
It was because of the Lord’s anger that all this
happened to Jerusalem and Judah, and in the end he thrust them from his
presence.”
JEREMIAH 7:3b-4 NIV
“Reform your ways and your actions, and I will let you live in this place.
Do
not trust in deceptive words and say, ‘This is the temple of the Lord, the
temple of the Lord, the temple of the Lord!”
2 KING 25:1-4 NIV
“So in the ninth year of Zedekiah’s reign, on the tenth day of the tenth
month, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon marched against Jerusalem with
his whole army.
He encamped outside the city and built siege works all
around it.
The city was kept under siege until the eleventh year of King
Zedekiah.
By the ninth day of the fourth month the famine in the city had
become so severe that there was no food for the people to eat.
Then the
city wall was broken through, and the whole army fled at night through
the gate between the two walls near the king’s garden, though the
Babylonians were surrounding the city.”
2 KINGS 25:8-9 NIV
“On the seventh day of the fifth month, in the nineteenth year of
Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, Nebuzaradan commander of the
imperial guard, an official of the king of Babylon, came to Jerusalem.
He
set fire to the temple of the LORD, the royal palace and all the houses of
Jerusalem.
Every important building he burned down.”
2 KINGS 25:13-15 NIV
Then, comes the pillaging of the Temple vessels: “The Babylonians broke
up the bronze pillars, the movable stands and the bronze Sea that were
at the temple of the LORD and they carried the bronze to Babylon.
They
also took away the pots, shovels, wick trimmers, dishes and all the bronze
articles used in the temple service.
The commander of the imperial guard
took away the censers and sprinkling bowls—all that were made of pure
gold or silver.”
DANIEL 5:1-4 NIV
“King Belshazzar gave a great banquet for a thousand of his nobles and
drank wine with them.
While Belshazzar was drinking his wine, he gave
orders to bring in the gold and silver goblets that Nebuchadnezzar his
father had taken from the temple in Jerusalem, so that the king and his
nobles, his wives and his concubines might drink from them.
