James Hastings Dictionary of the Bible: Jozacar


Subjects in this Topic:

JOZACAR.—In 2Ki_12:21 it is said that Jozacar ben-Shimeath and Jehozabad ben-Shomer murdered Joash. The parallel 2Ch_24:26 makes it clear that there was but one murderer named, and that his name has been duplicated. Jozacar and Zechariah have the same meaning, ‘Jahweb remembers.’
