Beschreibung:

2 Kings 15:17-18 In the nine and thirtieth year of Azariah [that is, Uzziah] king of Judah began Menahem the son of Gadi to reign over Israel, and reigned ten years in Samaria. And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he departed not all his days from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.
He taxed his people for debt to the Assyrians
