Jehoahaz of Israel

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jehoahaz of Israel was king of Israel and the son of Jehu (2 Kings 10:35). William F. Albright has dated his reign to 815 BCE-801 BCE, while E. R. Thiele offers the dates 814 BCE-798 BCE. A stamp seal dated to the end of the 7th century BC has been found with the inscription "[belonging] to Jehoahaz, son of the king".

He reigned seventeen years. His account in 2 Kings states that he was initially faithful to Yahweh, but his people followed the religious practices of the house of Jeroboam, which included the worship of a cultic pole of Asherah in Samaria. The kings of the Arameans, Hazael and Ben-hadad, prevailed over him, leaving him an army of 50 horsemen, 10 chariots and 10,000 foot soldiers (2 Kings 13:1-9).
