his reign is detailed in both 2 Chronicles and 2 Kings. His acts include both his successes and failures, such as his initial obedience to God and later idolatry. His reign is marked by a mixture of faithfulness and disobedience, reflecting the spiritual state of Judah during his time.<p><b>from beginning to end</b><br>This phrase suggests a comprehensive account of Amaziah's life and reign, indicating that his story is fully documented. It implies that the biblical narrative provides a complete picture of his actions, from his ascension to the throne to his eventual downfall and assassination.<p><b>are they not written in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel?</b><br>This rhetorical question points to another historical source, the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel, which is often referenced in the Bible as a record of the monarchs' reigns. This book is not part of the canonical scriptures but was likely a historical document used by the biblical authors. It emphasizes the historical reliability and thorough documentation of the events described in the Bible.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/a/amaziah.htm">Amaziah</a></b><br>Amaziah was the king of Judah, the son of Joash.
