JEHOAHAZ, 1. Son of Jehu and king of Israel

2 Kings 10:35

Jehu slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria. JEHOAHAZ his son reigned in his place.


2 Kings 13:1-9

1. In the twenty-third year of Joash the son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, JEHOAHAZ the son of Jehu began to reign over Israel in Samaria for seventeen years.
2. He did that which was evil in The LORD's sight, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, with which he made Israel to sin. He didn't depart from it.
3. The LORD's anger burned against Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of Hazael king of Syria, and into the hand of Benhadad the son of Hazael, continually.
4. JEHOAHAZ begged The LORD, and the LORD listened to him; for he saw the oppression of Israel, how the king of Syria oppressed them.
5. (The LORD gave Israel a savior, so that they went out from under the hand of the Syrians; and the children of Israel lived in their tents as before.
6. Nevertheless they didn't depart from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, with which he made Israel to sin, but walked in them; and the Asherah also remained in Samaria.)
7. For he didn't leave to JEHOAHAZ of the people any more than fifty horsemen, and ten chariots, and ten thousand footmen; for the king of Syria destroyed them, and made them like the dust in threshing.
8. Now the rest of the acts of JEHOAHAZ, and all that he did, and his might, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
9. JEHOAHAZ slept with his fathers; and they buried him in Samaria; and Joash his son reigned in his place.
