• God brings an encouraging prophecy to Ahaz and tells him to ask for a sign, but Ahaz refuses
• Ahaz begs the king of Assyria for help - in a similar fashion as one would pray to God
• Ahaz completely shutters the temple to God and replaces it with idols
• Why idolatry breeds selfishness, which, in turn breeds violence
