2Ki 14:14 | MHM | STEP | v. 14 : Joash took treasures from the temple and the palace and returned to Samaria with many hostages and spoil. Amaziah’s defeat happened even though he had done what was right in the sight of the Lord , while Joash had done evil. This teaches us that God opposes the proud and honors those who honor Him, especially through respect for His prophets (2 Kings 14:14; 2 Kings 13:14 ; 2 Chronicles 25:16 ).
