His death and burial So in the forty-first year of his reign Asa's reign over Judah lasted 41 years, indicating a long period of leadership. This duration suggests stability and continuity in the kingdom, which was significant in the context of the divided monarchy. Asa's reign is marked by initial faithfulness to God, including religious reforms and reliance on divine help against enemies. However, his later years were characterized by a decline in faith, as he relied on human alliances rather than God (2 Chronicles 16:7-9). The length of his reign also reflects God's patience and the opportunity for repentance, a theme seen throughout the Old Testament. Asa died and rested with his fathers Persons / Places / Events 1. AsaAsa was the king of Judah who reigned for 41 years. He is known for his initial faithfulness to God, reforms, and later reliance on human alliances rather than God. 2. Judah The southern kingdom of Israel, over which Asa reigned. It was often in conflict with the northern kingdom, Israel, and surrounding nations. 3. Reign of Asa Asa's reign is marked by a period of religious reform and peace, followed by a decline in faithfulness, leading to his reliance on foreign powers. Teaching Points The Importance of Consistent FaithfulnessAsa's life teaches us that initial faithfulness must be maintained. His early years were marked by devotion, but his later years showed a decline. We must strive for a consistent walk with God throughout our lives. The Danger of Reliance on Human Strength Asa's reliance on the king of Aram instead of God serves as a warning against trusting in human alliances or strength over divine help. The Consequences of Spiritual Decline Asa's failure to seek God in his illness illustrates the spiritual decline that can occur when we turn away from God. It reminds us to seek God in all circumstances. The Legacy We Leave Asa's reign ended with him being remembered for both his reforms and his failures. Our actions and faithfulness leave a legacy for future generations.(13) And died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.--Not in 1Kings 15:24, which continues, with the usual formula, "and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father, and Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead." (See 1Kings 15:10, "And forty and one years reigned he in Jerusalem.")Verse 13. - Amid the frequent uncertainties of the chronology, we are glad to get some dates fixed by the agreement of testimonies. E.g. this place and the parallel state clearly that Asa's reign was one that lasted to its forty-first year. The parallel, however (1 Kings 15:23), makes this date one and the same thing with his "old age," while no manipulation of dates can make him (the grandson of Rehoboam and son of Abijah) more than about fifty. And it is somewhat remarkable that, when introduced to us as succeeding to the throne, nothing is said of his tender youth (as, for instance, is said in the case of Josiah, 2 Kings 22:1; 2 Kings 24:1-3). Nevertheless, the apparent prominence of Maachah awhile would tally with the circumstance of Asa's youth at his accession. Another correspondence in Josiah's career is noticeable; for it is distinctly said that when he was only twelve years of age (2 Chronicles 34:3) "he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places," etc. At a similarly youthful age Asa, therefore, may be credited with doing the like, while later on he took more stringent measures, as for instance with Maachah, the queen-mother.
