What happened between Israel and Edom to cause Amaziah to invade them?
Question:
What happened between Israel and Edom prior to II Chronicles 25:13?
Answer:
The invasion of Edom by King Amaziah of Judah is recorded in II Chronicles 25:5-16 and II Kings 14:7. Edom had been made a subjected nation by King David (II Samuel 8:13; Psalm 60:1). However, during the reign of King Joram, Edom rebelled (II Kings 8:20). Amaziah took in an army to recapture this lost territory.
