2 Kings 24:3-4
– v. 4: The sins of Manasseh, especially the shedding of innocent blood, were still remembered by God. Though Manasseh repented, his actions had lasting consequences for the nation. The innocent blood he shed, likely including the blood of God’s prophets and worshippers, cried out for judgment. God’s justice shows us that sin has serious consequences, even across generations (Deuteronomy 32:34; Job 14:17; Jeremiah 22:17 a).
