BRAGADAYJAY 1106
The Assyrians Take Damascus

And the king of Assyria listened to Ahaz and he went up against and took Damascus and carried the people away to Kir and slew Rezin the king. And King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet with Tiglath-pilser. And while there he saw an altar in Damascus and Ahaz took and sent to the priest Urijah a drawing of the altar, with a pattern of it as well as the workmanship surrounding it, and ordered Urijah to build an exact facsimile of it and he did so. And when king Ahaz saw the altar which Urijah had built he approached it and offered sacrifices thereon. And he burnt his burnt offering and his meat offering on it and poured the drink offering and the blood of his peace offerings on it. And he brought also the brazen altar which was before the Lord, from the forefront of the house from between the altar and the house of the Lord, and put it on the north side of the altar. And king Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest to burn the morning burnt offering and the evening meal offering upon the great altar, together with the burnt offering and the meal offering, and the drink offering of all the people of the land, and also the blood of the burnt offering and all the blood of the sacrifice sprinkled upon the great altar. And so Urijah the priest all that the King commanded him to do.
