Which was right. The reign of Asa was a turning point in the history of Judah. The prophets Azariah and Hanani (2 Chron. 15:1, 2; 16:7) gave guidance and inspiration to the king in his efforts to follow the way of the Lord. The account in Kings gives only a few brief details of this interesting reign, which is reported in much greater detail in Chronicles (2 Chron. 14:1 to 16:14).
