And the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his stead: for the band of men that came with the Arabians to the camp had slain all the eldest. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram king of Judah reigned. 2Ch 21:16-172Ki 8:24-292Ch 23:32Ch 26:12Ch 33:252Ch 36:11Ch 3:11 Forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother’s name also was Athaliah the daughter of Omri. 1Ki 16:282Ch 21:62Ki 8:26 He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab: for his mother was his counsellor to do wickedly. Gen 27:12-13Act 4:19Deu 13:6-10Deu 7:3-4Gen 6:4-5Jdg 17:4-5Mal 2:15Mat 10:37 Wherefore he did evil in the sight of the LORD like the house of Ahab: for they were his counsellors after the death of his father to his destruction.

¶ He walked also after their counsel, and went with Jehoram the son of Ahab king of Israel to war against Hazael king of Syria at Ramoth-gilead: and the Syrians smote Joram. 1Ki 22:32Ch 18:32Ch 18:312Ch 19:22Ki 8:28-292Ki 8:9Dan 5:22Mic 6:16 And he returned to be healed in Jezreel because of the wounds which were given him at Ramah, when he fought with Hazael king of Syria. And Azariah the son of Jehoram king of Judah went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab at Jezreel, because he was sick. 1 2 2Ki 9:152Ch 21:172Ch 22:12Ch 22:72Ki 10:13-142Ki 8:29 And the destruction of Ahaziah was of God by coming to Joram: for when he was come, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom the LORD had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab. 3 2Ch 10:152Ki 9:211Ki 12:151Ki 19:161Ki 22:202Ki 9:1-7Deu 32:35Hos 14:9 And it came to pass, that, when Jehu was executing judgment upon the house of Ahab, and found the princes of Judah, and the sons of the brethren of Ahaziah, that ministered to Ahaziah, he slew them. 2Ki 10:10-14 And he sought Ahaziah: and they caught him, (for he was hid in Samaria,) and brought him to Jehu: and when they had slain him, they buried him: Because, said they, he is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the LORD with all his heart. So the house of Ahaziah had no power to keep still the kingdom. 1Ki 13:211Ki 14:132Ch 17:3-42Ch 21:172Ch 21:202Ch 21:42Ch 22:82Ki 9:27-28
¶ But when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal of the house of Judah. 2Ki 11:1-32Ch 22:2-4 But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king’s sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse in a bedchamber. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest, (for she was the sister of Ahaziah,) hid him from Athaliah, so that she slew him not. 4 Pro 21:30Psa 33:101Ki 15:42Ch 21:72Ch 23:12Ki 11:22Sa 7:13Act 4:28 And he was with them hid in the house of God six years: and Athaliah reigned over the land.
