Strongs On/Off
Context
16:11 Uriah the priest built an altar in conformity to the plans King Ahaz had sent from Damascus . Uriah the priest finished it before King Ahaz arrived back from Damascus .
16:12 When the king arrived back from Damascus and saw the altar , he approached it and offered a sacrifice on it.
16:13 He offered his burnt sacrifice and his grain offering . He poured out his libation and sprinkled the blood from his peace offerings on the altar .
16:14 He moved the bronze altar that stood in the Lord’s presence from the front of the temple (between the altar and the Lord’s temple ) and put it on the north side of the new altar .
16:15 King Ahaz ordered Uriah the priest , “On the large altar offer the morning burnt sacrifice , the evening grain offering , the royal burnt sacrifices and grain offering , the burnt sacrifice for all the people of Israel, their grain offering , and their libations . Sprinkle all the blood of the burnt sacrifice and other sacrifices on it. The bronze altar will be for my personal use.”
16:16 So Uriah the priest did exactly as King Ahaz ordered .
16:17 King Ahaz took off the frames of the movable stands , and removed the basins from them. He took “The Sea ” down from the bronze bulls that supported it and put it on the pavement .
16:18 He also removed the Sabbath awning that had been built in the temple and the king’s outer entranceway , on account of the king of Assyria .
16:19 The rest of the events of Ahaz’s reign, including his accomplishments , are recorded in the scroll called the Annals of the Kings of Judah .
16:20 Ahaz passed away and was buried with his ancestors in the city of David . His son Hezekiah replaced him as king .
