So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglathpileser king of Assyria, saying, I am thy servant and thy son: come up, and save me out of the hand of the king of Syria, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, which rise up against me.
Entonces Acaz envió mensajeros a Tiglat-pileser, rey de Asiria, diciendo: 'Yo soy tu siervo y tu hijo. Ven y líbrame de los reyes de Siria e Israel, que me atacan.'
Acaz pidió ayuda al rey de Asiria, sometiéndose a él como siervo para que lo rescatara de sus enemigos.
📚 Contexto Histórico
During the 8th century BC, Ahaz was the king of Judah facing a military threat from the kings of Syria and Israel, who had formed an alliance to attack him as part of the Syro-Ephraimite War. Instead of seeking God's help through faith and repentance as faithful kings before him had done, Ahaz turned to Tiglath-Pileser III, the king of Assyria, for military aid. This decision reflected a common ancient Near Eastern practice of forging vassal treaties with powerful empires, which often led to temporary security at the cost of national independence.
