Eight Kings Of Judah Served The Lord

Judah had somewhat of a better record. Only 8 of Judah`s kings served God. These were: Asa, Jehoshaphat, Joash, Amaziah, Uzziah, Jotham, Hezekiah, and Josiah. The rest of the 20 kings were wicked. In the southern kingdom there was only one dynasty, that of king David, except usurper Athaliah from the northern kingdom, who by marriage, broke into David`s line, and interrupted the succession for 6 years, 20 kings in all. An average of about 16 years to a reign.
