Jehoash (Joash) Reigns over Judah
21 [a] Jehoash began to reign as king when he was seven years old, 12 1 [b] ascending to the throne in the seventh year of the reign of[c] Jehu and then reigning for 40 years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Zibiah from Beer-sheba. 2 Jehoash did what the Lord considered to be right during the entire time when Jehoiada the priest was instructing him, 3 except that the high places were not demolished, so the people continued to sacrifice and burn incense on the high places.
