2 Kings 11:2

Arabic Bible ERV 2009

أمّا يَهُوشَبَعُ بِنْتُ المَلِكِ يُورامَ، وَأُخْتُ أخَزْيا، فَقَدْ خَطَفَتْ يُوآشَ بْنَ أخَزْيا مِنْ بَيْنِ إخْوَتِهِ قَبلَ أنْ يُقْتَلُوا، وَخَبَّأتْهُ هُوَ وَمُرضِعَتُهُ فِي غُرفَةِ نَومِها مِنْ عَثَلْيا فَلَمْ تَتَمَكَّنْ مِنْ قَتلِهِ.

ما معنى هذا؟

In this verse, Jehosheba, the daughter of King Joram and sister of Ahaziah, saves her nephew Joash from being killed by hiding him and his nurse in a bedroom. Athaliah, who was trying to kill all the royal heirs, did not find him. This act of bravery preserved the line of David.

شرح للأطفال

Imagine you're playing hide and seek, but the stakes are really high. Jehosheba, a princess, hid her little nephew Joash from a mean lady who wanted to hurt him. She kept him safe in her bedroom like a secret hideout, and that's how Joash was saved, just like finding the best hiding spot in a game.

السياق التاريخي

This verse is part of the Books of Kings, written around the 6th century BCE, likely by a prophet. It was aimed at the Israelite people in exile, recounting the history of their kings to remind them of God's promises and warnings. The story is set in a time of political upheaval and religious tension.

Just like Jehosheba risked her safety to protect her nephew, in modern times we can see how people stand up for others, even in dangerous situations. Imagine a teacher who reports a bully to protect a student, or a neighbor who helps another during a natural disaster, showing the importance of courage and compassion.
