Joash (Jehoash) Reigns over Judah

12 In the seventh year of Jehu, (B)Jehoash became king, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem; and his mother’s name was Zibiah of Beersheba. Jehoash did right in the sight of the Lord all his days in which Jehoiada the priest instructed him. Only (C)the high places were not taken away; the people still sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.
