Zechariah Ben Jehoiada - Death

Death

After the death of Jehoiada, Zechariah condemned both king Jehoash and the people for their rebellion against God (2 Chronicles 24:20). This so stirred up their resentment against him that at the king's commandment they stoned him, and he died "in the court of the house of the Lord" (24:21).

Famous quotes containing the word death:

    I cannot think this creature died
    By storm or fish or sea-fowl harmed
    Walking the sea so heavily armed;
    Or does it make for death to be
    Oneself a living armoury?
    Andrew Young (1885–1971)

    There is no sorrow more grievous than the death of one’s spirit.
    —Chinese proverb.
