3:6-10 The Lord had been addressing the kingdom of Judah as “Israel” (2:1–3:5), emphasizing their identity as his people. Now the Lord distinguishes between Israel, the northern kingdom that had been destroyed (2 Kgs 17), and the kingdom of Judah. Since the people of the southern kingdom had learned nothing from the fate of the northern kingdom, they were doomed to experience the same fate. • Josiah (640–609 BC) promoted a return to historic faith and practice in 621 BC (2 Chr 34:29-33).
