When faithful, the southern kingdom served to proclaim to the nations Jehovah’s glory and to attract righthearted ones to worship him at his temple and be ministered to by the legitimate Levite priesthood.
( Jesajas 43: 10, 21; 44: 21.) Dienvidu ķēniņvalsts, kad tā bija uzticīga, pauda tautām Jehovas slavu un rosināja cilvēkus ar godīgu sirdi pielūgt Jehovu viņa templī, kur kalpoja likumīgi priesteri — levīti.
