Twenty-five years old, was he when he began to reign, and twenty-nine years, reigned he in Jerusalem, - and, his mother's name, was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem. And he did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, only, not like David his father: according to all that Joash his father did, so he did; read more.
