Welcome back to Reading with Ben! Let's continue the lecture on the book of 2 Kings.
This is episode #06 chapters 11 & 12.
2 Kings Chapter 11, speaks of the time after Ahaziah had passed away. When his mother saw him dead, she went on to destroy the entire royal family. Jehosheba, the daughter of Jehoram and sister of Ahaziah, took the son of Ahaziah, Joash, from among the royal princes so that he would not be murdered.
2 Kings Chapter 12, continues from the previous chapter, with Joash ruling over Jerusalem in the seventh year of Jehu. He reigned for 40 years and was a good man in the eyes of the Lord. He was under the instruction of Jehodiah, who was a priest.
