¹ When Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she was determined to destroy the entire royal line. ² So Jehosheba, the daughter of King Joram and sister of Ahaziah, took Ahaziah's son Joash and sneaked him away from the rest of the royal descendants who were to be executed. She hid him and his nurse in the room where the bed covers were stored. So he was hidden from Athaliah and escaped execution.
