2 Chronicles 22:2-4
The Voice
2 Ahaziah was 22 years old[a] when he became king, and he ruled for only one year in Jerusalem.
Ahaziah was the son of Athaliah, the granddaughter of Omri and daughter of Ahab. 3-4 Since his mother and her relatives were his counselors during his reign, Ahaziah followed the gods worshiped by the Northern Kingdom, and performed evil deeds before the Eternal as the house of Ahab did. By following this bad advice, Ahaziah ensured his destruction.
