2 Kings 17:18

¹⁸Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel, and removed them out of his sight. There was none left but the tribe of Judah only.

2 Kings 17 chronicles the final demise of the northern kingdom of Israel, culminating in the fall of Samaria to the Assyrians and the deportation of its people. The chapter provides a profound theological explanation for this catastrophe, attributing Israel's destruction to their persistent idolatry and covenant unfaithfulness. It also describes the subsequent repopulation of Samaria with foreign peoples who blended their pagan worship with a superficial reverence for Yahweh, creating a syncretistic religion.
