His reign is documented in the books of 2 Kings and 2 Chronicles. Amon was the son of King Manasseh and Meshullemeth, the daughter of Haruz of Jotbah. He ascended to the throne following the death of his father, Manasseh, and reigned for two years in Jerusalem. Reign and Idolatry Amon's reign is characterized by a continuation of the idolatrous practices initiated by his father, Manasseh. The Bible records that Amon did evil in the sight of the LORD, as he walked in the ways of his father. He served and worshiped the idols that Manasseh had set up, forsaking the LORD, the God of his ancestors. The Berean Standard Bible states, "And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done. He walked in all the ways of his father, and he served and worshiped the idols his father had served" (<a href="/2_kings/21-20.htm">2 Kings 21:20-21</a>). Assassination and Aftermath Amon's reign was abruptly ended when he was assassinated by his own officials in his palace. This act of treachery, however, did not go unpunished. The people of the land executed all those who had conspired against King Amon and subsequently made his son, Josiah, king in his place. The biblical account in <a href="/2_kings/21-23.htm">2 Kings 21:23-24</a> states, "Then the servants of Amon conspired against him and killed the king in his palace. But the people of the land struck down all who had conspired against King Amon, and they made his son Josiah king in his place." Legacy and Burial Amon's short reign left a legacy of continued idolatry and spiritual decline in Judah. Despite his evil deeds, he was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza, as was customary for the kings of Judah. The account in <a href="/2_chronicles/33-24.htm">2 Chronicles 33:24-25</a> confirms, "Then the people of the land struck down all who had conspired against King Amon, and they made his son Josiah king in his place. He was buried in his tomb in the garden of Uzza." Significance in Biblical History Amon's reign is significant as it highlights the persistent struggle between idolatry and the worship of Yahweh in the history of Judah. His assassination and the subsequent rise of his son Josiah, who would become one of Judah's most righteous kings, mark a pivotal moment in the spiritual reformation of the nation. Amon's life and reign serve as a cautionary tale of the consequences of turning away from the LORD and embracing idolatry.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div>Amonfaithful; true<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div>Amon(builder). <ol> <li>One of Ahab's governors.

The son of Manasseh, and fourteenth king of Judah. He restored idolatry, and set up the images which his father had cast down. Zephaniah (<a href="/2_chronicles/1-4.htm">1:4</a>; <a href="/2_chronicles/3-4.htm">3:4</a>, 11) refers to the moral depravity prevailing in this king's reign.He was assassinated (<a href="/2_kings/21-18.htm">2 Kings 21:18</a>-26: <a href="/2_chronicles/33-20.htm">2 Chronicles 33:20</a>-25) by his own servants, who conspired against him.(3.)

In Nahum 3:8 the expression "populous No" of the Authorized version is rendered in the Revised Version "No-amon." Amon is identified with Ra, the sun-god of Heliopolis.(4.) <a href="/nehemiah/7-59.htm">Nehemiah 7:59</a>. <a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div>AMONa'-mon ('amon): A name identical with that of the Egyptian local deity of Thebes (No); compare <a href="/jeremiah/46-25.htm">Jeremiah 46:25</a>. The foreign name given to a Hebrew prince is remarkable, as is also the fact that it is one of the two or three royal names of Judah not compounded with the name of Yahweh. See <a href="../m/manasseh.htm">MANASSEH</a>. It seems to reflect the sentiment which his fanatical father sought to make prevail that Yahweh had no longer any more claim to identification with the realm than had other deities. (1) A king of Judah, son and successor of Manasseh; reigned two years and was assassinated in his own palace by the officials of his household. The story of his reign is told briefly in <a href="/2_kings/21-19.htm">2 Kings 21:19-26</a>, and still more briefly, though in identical terms, so far as they go, in <a href="/2_chronicles/33-21.htm">2 Chronicles 33:21-25</a>. His short reign was merely incidental in the history of Judah; just long enough to reveal the traits and tendencies which directly or indirectly led to his death. It was merely a weaker continuation of the regime of his idolatrous father, though without the fanaticism which gave the father positive character, and without the touch of piety which, if the Chronicler's account is correct, tempered the father's later years. If the assassination was the initial act of a revolution the latter was immediately suppressed by "the people of the land," who put to death the conspirators and placed Amon's eight-year-old son Josiah on the throne. In the view of the present writer the motive of the affair was probably connected with the perpetuity of the Davidic dynasty, which, having survived so long according to prophetic prediction (compare <a href="/2_samuel/7-16.htm">2 Samuel 7:16</a> <a href="/psalms/89-36.htm">Psalm 89:36, 37</a>), was an essential guarantee of Yahweh's favor. Manasseh's foreign sympathies, however, had loosened the hold of Yahweh on the officials of his court; so that, instead of being the loyal center of devotion to Israel's religious and national idea, the royal household was but a hotbed of worldly ambitions, and all the more for Manasseh's prosperous reign, so long immune from any stroke of Divine judgment. It is natural that, seeing the insignificance of Amon's administration, some ambitious clique, imitating the policy that had frequently succeeded in the Northern Kingdom, should strike for the throne. They had reckoned, however, without estimating the inbred Davidic loyalty of the body of the people. It was a blow at one of their most cherished tenets, committing the nation both politically and religiously to utter uncertainty. That this impulsive act of the people was in the line of the purer religious movement which was ripening in Israel does not prove that the spiritually-minded "remnant" was minded to violence and conspiracy, it merely shows what a stern and sterling fiber of loyalty still existed, seasoned and confirmed by trial below the corrupting cults and fashions of the ruling classes. In the tragedy of Amon's reign, in short, we get a glimpse of the basis of sound principle that lay at the common heart of Israel. (2) A governor of Samaria (<a href="/1_kings/22-26.htm">1 Kings 22:26</a>); the one to whom the prophet Micaiah was committed as a prisoner by King Ahab, after the prophet had disputed the predictions of the court prophets and foretold the king's death in battle.
