And Menahem slept with his fathers; and Pekahiah his son reigned in his stead.
Y Menahem murió y fue sepultado con sus antepasados; y su hijo Peqaías llegó a ser rey después de él.
Menahem murió y su hijo Peqaías tomó su lugar como rey.
📚 Contexto Histórico
Menahem was a king of Israel (the northern kingdom) who ruled around 752-742 BC during a time of great political instability. He had seized power through violence and maintained his rule through brutality, including paying tribute to the Assyrian king Tiglath-Pileser III to secure his position. The phrase 'slept with his fathers' was a common Hebrew expression for death and burial, indicating he died a natural death despite his violent rise to power.
