In the Kings and Prophets series finale, we examine the background to books such as Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, Malachi, Zechariah, and Haggai. While the majority of the captives remained in Persia and Babylon, many returned to Jerusalem. It was here that the prophets came to gain a new understanding of God's purposes among His people.

In this episode, we look at the rise of King Hezekiah. The Bible marks him as among the greatest of Judah’s kings, probably even greater than Solomon. Much of his greatness is established by what he came out of when we consider who his father was. It is also based upon the great acts he took in the governance of Judah that would serve the nation well in the days ahead.

Here we cover that story, including his ministry that spanned the reigns of multiple kings of Judah.
