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:

    Disease generally begins that equality which death completes.
    Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)

    A man that apprehends death no more dreadfully but as a drunken sleep, careless, reckless, and fearless of what’s past, present, or to come; insensible of mortality, and desperately mortal.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Death is not natural for a state as it is for a human being, for whom death is not only necessary, but frequently even desirable.
    Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)
