2Ki 21:19-26 Amon's Wicked Reign.

Amon's Wicked Reign.

Amon was twenty-two years old when he began to reign. He continued his father's idolatrous policies, and after a two-year reign marked by no notable achievements, he was brutally murdered by some of his own servants. The people then killed the conspirators responsible for Amon's death and placed his son Josiah on the throne.
