Show Verse Quote Highlights
Context — Pekah Reigns in Israel
29In the days of Pekah king of Israel, Tiglath-pileser king of Assyria came and captured Ijon, Abel-beth-maacah, Janoah, Kedesh, Hazor, Gilead, and Galilee, including all the land of Naphtali, and he took the people as captives to Assyria.
30Then Hoshea son of Elah led a conspiracy against Pekah son of Remaliah. In the twentieth year of Jotham son of Uzziah, Hoshea attacked Pekah, killed him, and reigned in his place.
31As for the rest of the acts of Pekah, along with all his accomplishments, they are indeed written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
32In the second year of the reign of Pekah son of Remaliah over Israel, Jotham son of Uzziah became king of Judah. 33He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem sixteen years. His mother’s name was Jerusha daughter of Zadok.2 Kings 15:31 Summary
This verse, 2 Kings 15:31, tells us that the rest of Pekah's story, including all that he did, is written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel. This means that even though we don't have all the details in the Bible, God is aware of everything that happened in Pekah's life, just as He is aware of everything in our lives (see Psalm 139:1-6). We can learn from this that our actions have consequences and that God is concerned with the details of our lives. By trusting in God's sovereignty, as seen in Jeremiah 29:11, we can find comfort and guidance in our own lives.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the Bible mention the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
The Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel is a historical record that contained more detailed information about the kings of Israel, as seen in 2 Kings 15:31, and is also referenced in 1 Kings 14:19 and 1 Kings 16:5.
What can we learn from the fact that Pekah's acts are recorded in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
This shows that God is concerned with the details of our lives, just as He was with the kings of Israel, and that our actions have consequences, as seen in Proverbs 28:13 and Jeremiah 17:10.
Is the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel still available today?
Unfortunately, the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel has been lost to history, but its references in the Bible, such as in 2 Kings 15:31, provide valuable insights into the history of Israel and the reign of its kings, similar to the historical records found in 1 Chronicles 29:29-30.
Reflection Questions
- What are some areas in my life where I need to be more mindful of my actions and their consequences, just as the kings of Israel were held accountable for their actions?
- How can I apply the principle of accountability, as seen in the recording of Pekah's acts, to my own life and relationships?

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 2 Kings 15:31
And the rest of the acts of Pekah, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel. No JFB commentary on these verses.

2 Kings 15:31 And the rest of the acts of Pekah, and all that he did, behold, they [are] written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.Ver. 31. And the rest of the acts.] See 1 Kings 14:19.
Ellicott's Commentary on 2 Kings 15:31
(27-31) THE REIGN OF PEKAH, SON OF , IN SAMARIA.(27) Reigned twenty years.—This does not agree with the duration assigned to the reign of Jotham (2 Kings 15:33), and the year assigned as the beginning of Hoshea’s reign (2 Kings 17:1). For, according to 2 Kings 15:32, Pekah had reigned about two years when Jotham succeeded in Judah, and Jotham reigned sixteen years; and, according to 2 Kings 17:1, Pekah was succeeded by Hoshea in the twelfth year of Jotham’s successor, Ahaz. These data make the duration of Pekah’s reign from twenty-eight to thirty years. We must, therefore, either assume, with Thenius, that “the numeral sign for 30 (ì) has been corrupted into 20 (ë),” or, with Ewald, that “and nine” has been accidentally omitted after “twenty.” (29) Tiglath-pileser.—This Assyrian sovereign, who reigned from 745 to 727 B.C. , is called in his own inscriptions, Tukulti- (or Tuklat) ‘abal-Esarra, which Schrader renders, “my trust is Adar”—literally, Trust is the son of the temple of Sarra. (See Note on 1 Chronicles 5:26.) “The idea we get of this king from the remains of these inscriptions corresponds throughout to what we know of him from the Bible. Everywhere he is presented as a powerful warrior-king, who subjugated the entire tract of anterior Asia, from the frontier mountains of Media in the east to the Mediterranean sea in the west, including a part of Cappadocia” (Schrader, K.A.T., p. 247). Took Ijon, and Abel-beth-maachah . . . all the land of Naphtali.—Comp. 1 Kings 15:20. Janoah.—Not the border-town between Ephraim and Manasseh (Joshua 16:6), as the context requires a place in the northernmost part of Israel. Kedesh.—On the western shore of the waters of Merom (Joshua 21:37). Hazor.—See 1 Kings 9:15.
Gilead.—See 2 Kings 14:25; 1 Chronicles 5:26. It was no long time since Jeroboam II. had recovered it for Israel. According to Schrader (K.A.T., pp. 254, seq.) the reference of the verse is to Tiglath Pileser’s expedition in B.C. 734, called in the Eponym list an expedition to the land of Pilista (Philistia). With this Schrader connects a fragment of the annals which begins with a list of towns conquered by Tiglath, and ends thus: . . . “the town of Gaal (ad) . . . (A) bil . . . of the upper part of the land of Beth-Omri (i.e., Samaria) . . . in its whole extent I annexed to the territory of Assyria; my prefects the sagans I appointed over them.” The fragment goes on to mention the flight of Hânûn, king of Gaza, to Egypt, and the carrying off of his goods and his gods by the conqueror. It is added, “The land of Beth-Omri . . . the whole body of his men, their goods, to the land of Assyria I led away, Pakaha (i.e., Pekah) their king I slew (so Schrader;? ‘they slew’), and A-u-si-ha (i.e., Hoshea) . . . over them I appointed. Ten (talents of gold, 1,000 talents of silver) 1 received from them.” (30) Hoshea . . .
