Ahaziah in the bible 22 or 42
2 kings 8:26
Ahaziah son of jehoram.
Ahaziah of Judah
Sixth king of the Kingdom of Judah
Not to be confused with Ahaziah of Israel.
Ahaziah of Judah (Hebrew: אֲחַזְיָהוּ, ʼĂḥazyāhū; Greek: ὈχοζίαςOkhozias; Latin: Ahazia)[1] or Jehoahaz I (2 Chronicles21:17; 25:23), was the sixth king of Judah, and the son of Jehoram and Athaliah, the daughter (or possibly sister) of king Ahab of Israel.
He was also the first Judahite king to be descended from both the House of David and the House of Omri, through his mother and successor, Athaliah.
According to 2 Kings8:26, Ahaziah was 22 years old when he began to reign, and reigned for one year in Jerusalem.
2 Chronicles 22:2 gives his age as 42 years when his reign began in Jerusalem.
William F. Albright has dated his reign to 842 BC, while E. R. Thiele offers the date 841/840 BC.[2] As explained in the Rehoboam article, Thiele's chronology for the first kings of Judah contained an internal inconsistency that placed Ahaziah's reign one year aft
