The Reign Of Ahaziah

2 Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he began to rule. He ruled for one year in Jerusalem. His mother was Athaliah, the granddaughter of Omri. 3 He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab, for his mother was his counselor to do wickedly. 4 He did what Jehovah considered evil the same as Ahab's family had done. After his father died, they advised him to do what Ahab's family had done. They did this to destroy him.
