📚 Contexto Histórico
In the divided kingdom period of ancient Israel, around the 8th century BC, King Amaziah of Judah sought to strengthen his rule by waging war against the Edomites, who were longstanding enemies descended from Esau and had rebelled against Judah. He achieved a decisive victory by defeating 10,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt, a strategic location near the Dead Sea, and captured the fortified city of Sela, renaming it Joktheel to commemorate his success. This event reflects the ongoing territorial conflicts and power dynamics in the region, as Judah struggled to maintain its borders amid internal and external threats.
