Context — Samaria Resettled
23Finally, the LORD removed Israel from His presence, as He had declared through all His servants the prophets. So Israel was exiled from their homeland into Assyria, where they are to this day.
24Then the king of Assyria brought people from Babylon, Cuthah, Avva, Hamath, and Sepharvaim and settled them in the towns of Samaria to replace the Israelites. They took possession of Samaria and lived in its towns.
25Now when the settlers first lived there, they did not worship the LORD, so He sent lions among them, which killed some of them.
26So they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying, “The peoples that you have removed and placed in the cities of Samaria do not know the requirements of the God of the land. Because of this, He has sent lions among them, which are indeed killing them off.” 27Then the king of Assyria commanded: “Send back one of the priests you carried off from Samaria, and have him go back to live there and teach the requirements of the God of the land.”Cross References

2 Kings 17:25 Summary
This verse, 2 Kings 17:25, teaches us that when we don't worship God, He may send difficulties our way to get our attention, as seen in the lions that attacked the settlers in Samaria. It's essential to prioritize our relationship with God, as encouraged in Deuteronomy 6:5, and to seek His guidance and presence in our lives, just like the Psalmist in Psalms 119:105. By doing so, we can avoid the consequences of rejecting God and instead experience His love, mercy, and protection, as promised in Jeremiah 29:11 and Romans 8:28.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why did God send lions to attack the settlers in Samaria?
God sent lions to attack the settlers because they did not worship Him, as stated in 2 Kings 17:25, demonstrating His judgment on those who reject Him, similar to what is seen in Deuteronomy 28:15 and Leviticus 26:14-17.
What can we learn from the settlers' failure to worship God?
We learn that neglecting to worship and obey God can have severe consequences, as seen in 2 Kings 17:25, and that we must prioritize our relationship with Him, as encouraged in Deuteronomy 6:5 and Matthew 22:37.
How does this verse relate to the concept of God's judgment?
This verse illustrates God's judgment on those who reject Him, as seen in 2 Kings 17:25, and is consistent with other biblical teachings on God's judgment, such as Romans 1:18-25 and Revelation 20:12-15.
What role do lions play in this verse?
The lions in 2 Kings 17:25 serve as a means of God's judgment, symbolizing the consequences of rejecting Him, similar to the use of natural elements in Jeremiah 5:6 and Hosea 13:7-8 to illustrate God's displeasure.
Reflection Questions
- What are some ways I may be neglecting to worship God in my own life, and how can I prioritize my relationship with Him?
- How can I apply the lesson from 2 Kings 17:25 to my daily life, ensuring that I am seeking God's presence and guidance?
- What are some potential consequences of rejecting God, and how can I share the message of salvation with those around me?
- In what ways can I demonstrate my worship and obedience to God, and how can I encourage others to do the same?

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 2 Kings 17:25
And so it was at the beginning of their dwelling there, that they feared not the LORD: therefore the LORD sent lions among them, which slew some of them. No JFB commentary on these verses.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on 2 Kings 17:25
They feared not the Lord; they did not acknowledge nor worship God in any sort. Therefore; for this gross neglect and contempt of God, which was contrary to the principles and practices of the heathens, who used to worship the gods of the nations where they lived, and gave that honour to their false gods which here they denied to the true. Hereby also God asserted his own right and sovereignty over that land, and made them to understand that neither the Israelites were cast out nor they brought into that land by their valour or strength, but by God’ s providence, who as he had cast the Israelites out for their neglect of God’ s service, so both could and would in his due time turn them out also, if they were guilty of the same sins.
Trapp's Commentary on 2 Kings 17:25
2 Kings 17:25 And [so] it was at the beginning of their dwelling there, [that] they feared not the LORD: therefore the LORD sent lions among them, which slew [some] of them.Ver. 25. That they feared not the Lord.] As he expected they should some way own him in a land which he was pleased to own. To do wickedly in a land of uprightness is a foul business.
Ellicott's Commentary on 2 Kings 17:25
(25) The Lord sent (the) lions.—In the interval between the Assyrian depopulation and the re-peopling of the land, the lions indigenous to the country had multiplied naturally enough. Their ravages were understood by the colonists as a token of the wrath of the local deity on account of their neglect of his worship. The sacred writer endorses this interpretation of the incident, probably remembering Leviticus 26:22. (Comp. Exodus 23:29; Ezekiel 14:15.) Which slew.—The form of the verb implies a state of things which lasted some time. Literally, and they were killing among them.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on 2 Kings 17:25
Verse 25. The Lord sent lions among them] The land being deprived of its inhabitants, wild beasts would necessarily increase, even without any supernatural intervention; and this the superstitious new comers supposed to be a plague sent upon them, because they did not know how to worship him who was the God of the land; for they thought, like other heathens that every district had its own tutelary deity. Yet it is likely that God did send lions as a scourge on this bad people.
Cambridge Bible on 2 Kings 17:25
25. the Lord sent lions among them, which slew [R.V. killed] some of them] The word rendered ‘slew’ is not the same here as that in the next verse. This statement must be considered as the thought of the people themselves. How far it might also be shared by the writer of Kings we cannot know. These heathen people having regarded their own divinities as especially attached to certain places, would consider that Israel had also its own local deity. Him and His worship they were ignorant of, and when the wild beasts increased upon them it was a natural idea with them to regard the plague as inflicted by the god of the country. That wild beasts were not uncommon in the Holy Land at this period we can see from other places of the history, and when the land was less thickly populated, such beasts as remained would have more chance of multiplying.
Barnes' Notes on 2 Kings 17:25
The depopulation of the country, insufficiently remedied by the influx of foreigners, had the natural consequence of multiplying the wild beasts and making them bolder.
Whedon's Commentary on 2 Kings 17:25
25. They feared not the Lord — For they were idolaters, (2 Kings 17:30-31,) and knew nothing of Jehovah. The Lord sent lions — The theocratic historian views all calamities as Divine dispensations. Compare Leviticus 26:22.
