어린이를 위한 설명

Imagine if you got a big zit on your forehead every time you got mad at someone for telling you not to do something you're not supposed to do. That's kind of what happened to King Uzziah when he got really mad at the priests for telling him he couldn't burn incense.

역사적 배경

2 Chronicles was written by priests or Levites during the Persian period, around 400 BCE. It was written for Jews returning from exile to remind them of God's dealings with their ancestors and the importance of following God's laws.
