Notes

2 Kings 13:10–13

The narrator unusually combines Jehoash's accession statement with the usual closing notice about his reign. This setup lets him highlight final details about Elisha (2 Kings 13:14–21) and Israel's ongoing issue with Aram (2 Kings 13:22–25) before returning to Jehoash's war with King Amaziah of Judah in 2 Kings 14:8–14.
in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel: See study note on 1 Kings 14:19–20.
