The Hebrew word for "acts" is "ma'aseh," which can also mean deeds or works. This implies a comprehensive account of Ahaz's actions, both good and bad. Historically, Ahaz was known for his idolatry and alliance with Assyria, which led to spiritual and political decline in Judah. His acts are a cautionary tale of the consequences of turning away from God.<p><b>along with his ways</b><br />The term "ways" in Hebrew is "derek," often used to describe one's conduct or lifestyle. Ahaz's "ways" were marked by unfaithfulness to God, as he adopted pagan practices and closed the doors of the temple. This highlights the importance of a leader's personal conduct and its impact on the nation. In a spiritual context, it serves as a reminder that one's "ways" should align with God's commandments to ensure His blessings.<p><b>and his words</b><br />The Hebrew word for "words" is "dabar," which can also mean speech or matter. This suggests that Ahaz's words, possibly his decrees or proclamations, were significant enough to be recorded. Words have power, and in Ahaz's case, they likely contributed to the spiritual decline of Judah. This emphasizes the biblical principle that leaders are accountable for their words, which can either uplift or lead astray.<p><b>they are indeed written</b><br />The phrase "they are indeed written" underscores the reliability and permanence of the historical record. The use of the Hebrew word "kathab" for "written" indicates that these accounts were documented with care and authority. This serves as a reminder of the importance of recording history accurately, as it provides lessons for future generations.<p><b>in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel</b><br />This refers to a historical record that chronicled the reigns of the kings of both Judah and Israel. While this specific book is not part of the biblical canon, it is referenced multiple times in the Old Testament, indicating its historical significance. The mention of this book highlights the interconnectedness of the biblical narrative and the broader historical context of the region. It serves as a testament to the meticulous documentation of Israel's history, which provides valuable insights into God's dealings with His people.<div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/ellicott/2_chronicles/28.htm">Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers</a></div><span class= "bld">CLOSING NOTICES</span> (<a href="/context/2_chronicles/28-26.htm" title="Now the rest of his acts and of all his ways, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.">2Chronicles 28:26-27</a>.
