2 Chronicles 21:12-13
Jehoram's Miserable EndThis section tells how Jehoram’s evil choices led to his downfall. God sent him a warning through a letter from the prophet Elijah, but Jehoram ignored it. As a result, he suffered great losses, painful sickness, and died without honor. His story is a warning that turning away from God brings misery, but God’s promises to David’s family still remained.v. 12-13: Jehoram received a letter from Elijah the prophet. Elijah reminded him that he was a descendant of David, which made his wickedness even worse. The letter listed Jehoram’s sins: he turned away from the good example of his father and grandfather, followed the evil ways of Ahab’s family, led the people into idolatry, and killed his own brothers because they were better than him (2 Chronicles 21:12-13 a). Elijah warned that these sins would bring God’s judgment. –
