Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, <i>that</i> Rezin king of Syria and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up to Jerusalem to <i>make</i> war against it, but could not <span

saying, “Syria’s forces are <span class="fn"><a href="#footnotes">[b]</a></span>deployed in Ephraim.” So his heart and the heart of his people were moved as the trees of the woods are moved with the
