In context
11Asa’s acts, from first to last, are written in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel. 12In the thirty-ninth year of his reign Asa fell ill in his feet, and his illness grew severe; yet even in his illness he did not seek Yahweh, but turned to the physicians. 13Asa lay down with his ancestors, dying in the forty-first year of his reign. 14They buried him in the tomb he had cut for himself in the City of David. They laid him on a bier filled with spices and perfumes of every kind, blended by the perfumer’s art, and they lit an enormous fire in his honour.
