| 0:00.0 | Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble and I'm your host for the Bible recap. |
| 0:13.3 | King Ray, the first king of the Southern Kingdom of Judah, has died, and he's replaced by |
| 0:17.6 | his son Abijim, also known as Abijah. |

| 1:18.4 | reforms, Asa does just that. |
| 1:21.3 | He is not afraid to make things right in Judah, even if that means kicking family members |
