And they buried him in his own sepulchres, which he had made for himself in the city of David, and laid him in the bed which was filled with sweet odours and divers kinds of spices prepared by the apothecaries’ art: and they made a very great burning for him.
Lo sepultaron en su propia tumba que él había construido para sí mismo en la ciudad de David. Lo pusieron en un lecho lleno de perfumes dulces y muchas clases diferentes de especias que habían sido preparadas por perfumistas expertos. E hicieron un fuego muy grande para honrarlo.
Sepultaron al rey en su tumba con perfumes y especias, y encendieron un gran fuego en su honor.
📚 Contexto Histórico
King Asa was a king of Judah who began his reign with strong faith in God, implementing religious reforms and achieving military victories, but he later turned to political alliances with foreign powers instead of seeking divine help. This verse describes his elaborate burial in a tomb he prepared, filled with spices and a great burning, which was a customary way to honor deceased rulers in ancient Israel, reflecting both respect for his legacy and the cultural practices of the time. It highlights the irony of his honorable burial despite his final years of disobedience.
