{2 Kings 8:26} Two 8147 and twenty 6242 years 8141 old 1121 [was] Ahaziah 274 when he began to reign; 4427 z8800 and he reigned 4427 z8804 one 259 year 8141 in Jerusalem. 3389 And his mother's 517 name 8034 [was] Athaliah, 6271 the daughter 1323 of Omri 6018 king 4428 of Israel. 3478

Two and twenty:
In the parallel passage of Chronicles, it is said, "forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign;" but this is evidently a mistake, as it makes the son two years older than his own father! For his father began to reign when he was thirty-two years old, and reigned eight years, and so died, being forty years old. See note on "Thirtyª and twoª yearsª oldª was¹ he when he began to reign;ª ° and he reignedª ° eightª yearsª in Jerusalem.ª" {2Kg 8:17}, and see note on "Fortyª and twoª yearsª oldª [was] Ahaziahª when he began to reign,ª ° and he reignedª ° oneª yearª in Jerusalem.ª His mother'sª nameª also [was] Athaliahª the daughterª of Omri.ª" {2Ch 22:2}.

one year:
"And Joramª said,ª ° Make ready.ª ° And his chariotª was made ready.ª ° And Joramª kingª of Israelª and Ahaziahª kingª of Judahª went out,ª ° eachª in his chariot,ª and they went outª ° against² °¹ Jehu,ª and metª ° him in the portionª of Nabothª the Jezreelite.ª ... But when Ahaziahª the kingª of Judahª sawª ° [this], he fledª ° by the wayª of the gardenª house.ª And Jehuª followedª ° afterª him, and said,ª ° Smiteª ° him also¹ in¹ the chariot.ª [And they did so] at the going upª to Gur,ª which¹ [is] by¹ Ibleam.ª And he fledª ° to Megiddo,ª and diedª ° there.¹" {2Kg 9:21-27} + "He walkedª ° also¹ after their counsel,ª and went² °¹ with¹ Jehoramª the sonª of Ahabª kingª of Israelª to warª against¹ Hazaelª kingª of Syriaª at Ramothgilead:ª ² and the Syrians² ¹ smoteª °¹ Joram.ª ... And it came to pass,¹ that, when Jehuª was executing judgmentª ° upon¹ the houseª of Ahab,ª and foundª °¹ the princesª of Judah,ª and the sonsª of the brethrenª of Ahaziah,ª that ministeredª ° to Ahaziah,ª he slewª ° them." {2Ch 22:5-8}

Athaliah:
"And when Athaliahª the motherª of Ahaziahª sawª ° that¹ her sonª was dead,ª ° she aroseª ° and destroyedª °¹ all¹ the seedª royal.ª" {2Kg 11:1} + "And when Athaliahª heardª °¹ the noiseª of the guardª ° [and] of the people,ª she cameª ° to¹ the peopleª into the templeª of the LORD.ª ... And they laidª ° handsª on her; and she wentª ° by the wayª by the which the horsesª cameª into the king'sª house:ª and there¹ was she slain.ª °" {2Kg 11:13-16}

daughter:
or, grand-daughter, "And he walked² °¹ in the wayª of the kingsª of Israel,ª as¹ didª ° the houseª of Ahab:ª for¹ the daughterª of Ahabª was¹ his wife:ª and he didª ° evilª in the sightª of the LORD.ª" {2Kg 8:18}
