Reign of Jehoash or Joash of Israel. - On the commencement of his reign see at Kg2 13:1. He also walked in the sins of Jeroboam (compare Kg2 13:11 with Kg2 13:2 and Kg2 13:6). The war with Amaziah referred to in Kg2 13:12 is related in the history of this king in Kg2 14:8-14; and the close of the reign of Joash is also recorded there ( Kg2 14:15 and Kg2 14:16) with the standing formula. And even here it ought not to be introduced till the end of the chapter, instead of in Kg2 13:12 and Kg2 13:13, inasmuch as the verses which follow relate several things belonging to the reign of Joash. But as they are connected with the termination of Elisha's life, it was quite admissible to wind up the reign of Joash with Kg2 13:13. 4 Kings (2 Kings) 13:14
