This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
thirty and seventh. Joash (of Israel) became king in the thirtyseventh year of Joash (of Judah). Amaziah, son of Joash (of Judah), became king in the second year of Joash (of Israel), 2Ki_14:1. Therefore Amaziah became associate king in the thirty-ninth year of Joash of Judah: i.e. one year before Joash died, for he "reigned forty years in Jerusalem" (1Ch_24:1). The cause of Amaziah's kingship in Joash's lifetime is not named in Kings, but we see it in the "diseases" of 2Ch_24:25.
over: i.e. in consort with his father. Compare 2Ki_14:1.
