Four-Ply and a Place to Cry

In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Set thine house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live. Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the LORD, saying, I beseech thee, O LORD, remember now how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore.-2 Kings 20:1-3***King Hezekiah was an Israelite from the tribe of Judah, descended from Abraham (Abram the Hebrew) and Sarah (Sarai), Isaac and Rebekah, Jacob (Israel) and his 1st wife Leah, and Jacob and Leah's 4th born son Judah. Hezekiah was the 12th king to rule Judah, the southern nation in the Promised Land, the land that the Lord God promised to give to Abraham, and Isaac, and to Jacob, and their descendants.  Hezekiah, and Hezekiah's great-grandson King Josiah, and Hezekiah's grandfather King Jotham, and Jotham's father King Uzziah (Azariah), and Uzziah's great-great-great-grandfather King Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat's father King Asa were the only kings in Judah who only worshiped the Lord God and never became idolaters. The other kings worshiped idols. The divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible reveal that Hezekiah's trust in the Lord God was unparalleled among Judah's kings. When Hezekiah was sick and dying, Isaiah, a prophet of the Lord God, visited him. Hezekiah's great-great-grandson Jehoiakim (Eliakim) was the 17th king to rule Judah. During Jehoiakim's 11-year reign, the Babylonians (Chaldeans) invaded Judah and Jerusalem, the royal city, and King Nebuchadnezzar, ruler of Babylon, began looting the temple of the Lord. Jehoiachin (Jeconiah/Coniah), the son born to Jehoiakim and Nehushta, was the 18th king to rule Judah. During Jehoiachin's 3-month reign, the Babylonians took more prominent Israelites, including Jehoiachin, his wives and mother, to Babylon. During the 11th year of the reign of Jehoiakim's brother King Zedekiah (Mattaniah), the 19th king to rule Judah, the Babylonians conquered Jerusalem, according to the will of the Lord God, due to the idolatry and other wickedness of the Israelites. Over 500 years after Israelites began returning to Judah and Jerusalem, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah, the tribe of Judah's kings, to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, Ruth, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 10:1-29:30, 2 Chronicles, Isaiah 36:1-39:8, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26

Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, Be ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves? When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness. Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest's house. And Peter followed afar off. And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them. But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him. And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not. And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not. And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this fellow also was with him: for he is a Galilean. And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest, And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew. And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.-Luke 22:52-62***Simon Peter and Andrew were Israelites and fishermen from Bethsaida,  Galilee. John the Baptist was an Israelite from the tribe of Levi, born to Zechariah (Zacharias) the priest and his wife Elizabeth (Elisabeth). Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Elizabeth's relative Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin. Over 1,900 years before John the Baptist and Jesus the Christ were born, Levi and Judah were born to Jacob (Israel) and his 1st wife Leah. Approximately 30 years after John the Baptist and Jesus the Christ were born, Jesus was baptized in the Jordan River by John the Baptist. Jesus having prayed, the heavens tearing open, the Holy Spirit descended as a dove and lit upon Jesus. The Lord God in heaven audibly acknowledged his Son Jesus, and the Holy Spirit led Jesus into the desert wilderness. Jesus fasted 40 days and nights and was tempted. Afterwards, Jesus was tended to by angels, and Jesus went to the area near John the Baptist, and John the Baptist proclaimed Jesus to the the Lamb of God taking away the sin of the world, and testified that Jesus is the Son of God. In Galilee, Jesus told specific Israelite men, including Simon Peter, Andrew, James, and John, to follow him, and Jesus began to preach, teach and perform miracles among the Israelites, the treasured and chosen people of the Lord God. Simon Peter, James and John were fishing business partners and became the disciples and apostles most constantly with Jesus, and saw Jesus transfigured and speaking with Moses and Elijah, 2 prophets who had lived centuries earlier. Moreover, while enveloped in a cloud, Simon Peter, James and John heard the voice of the Lord God, and Simon Peter James and John witnessed Jesus command a dead girl to rise. Jesus gave Simon Peter another name, and Simon Peter walked on water after speaking to Jesus and hearing the command of Jesus, and Simon Peter divinely identified Jesus. After Simon Peter did not want Jesus to wash his feet, Simon Peter wanted Jesus to wash his hands and head. Jesus spoke about his upcoming death to the remaining disciples and apostles after Judas Iscariot left to betray Jesus, and Simon Peter said that he would never fall away, and would die with Jesus, and never deny Jesus, and the other disciples said that they would die with Jesus and never deny Jesus. When the armed group came to arrest Jesus, Simon Peter used his sword to cut off the ear of Malchus. Shortly thereafter Simon Peter and the other 10 disciples and apostles ran away. Judas Iscariot killed himself. Jesus was crucified. Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus the Pharisee prepared the body of Jesus and buried the body of Jesus in a tomb, and Jesus was resurrected, seen by over 500 people, including his disciples, and returned to heaven.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings, 2 Kings 1:1-2:25, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 6:1-81, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26
