Joash:
(to whom Jehovah hastens, i.e. to help) contracted from JEHOASH. SEE [JEHOASH].
(1.) Son of Ahaziah king of Judah (B.C. 884) and the only one of his children who escaped the murderous hand of Athaliah. After his father's sister Jehoshabeath, the wife of Jehoiada the high priest, had stolen him from among the king's sons, he was hidden for six years in the chambers of the temple. In the seventh year of his age and of his concealment, a successful revolution, conducted by Jehoiada, placed him on the throne of his ancestors, and freed the country from the tyranny and idolatries of Athaliah. For at least twenty‐three years, while Jehoiada lived, his reign was very prosperous; but after the death of Jehoiada, Joash fell into the hands of bad advisers, at whose suggestion he revived the worship of Baal and Ashtaroth. When he was rebuked for this by Zechariah, the son of Jehoiada, Joash caused him to be stoned to death in the very court of the Lord's house (Matthew 23:35). That very year Hazael king of Syria came up against Jerusalem, and carried off a vast booty as the price of his departure. Joash had scarcely escaped this danger when he fell into another and fatal one. Two of his servants conspired against him and slew him in his bed and in the fortress of Millo. Joash's reign lasted forty years, from 878 to 838 B.C.
(2.) Son and successor of Jehoahaz on the throne of Israel from B.C. 840 to 825, and for two full years a contemporary sovereign with the preceding (2 Kings 14:1 compare with 2 Kings 12:1; 13:10). When he succeeded to the crown the kingdom was in a deplorable state from the devastations of Hazael and Ben‐hadad, kings of Syria. On occasion of a friendly visit paid by Joash to Elisha on his death‐bed, the prophet promised him deliverance from the Syrian yoke in Aphek (1 Kings 20:26-30). He then bade him smite upon the ground, and the king smote thrice and then stayed. The prophet rebuked him for staying, and limited to three his victories over Syria. Accordingly Joash did defeat Ben‐hadad three times on the field of battle, and recovered from him the cities which Hazael had taken from Jehoahaz. The other great military event of Joash's reign was the successful war with Amaziah king of Judah. He died in the fifteenth year of Amaziah king of Judah.
(3.) The father of Gideon, and a wealthy man among the Abiezrites (Judges 6:11). (B.C. before 1256)
(4.) Apparently a younger son of Ahab, who held a subordinate jurisdiction in the lifetime of his father (1 Kings 22:26; 2 Chronicles 18:25). (B.C. 896)
(5.) A descendant of Shelah the son of Judah, but whether his son or the son of Jokim is not clear (1 Chronicles 4:22).
(6.) A Benjamite, son of Shemaah of Gibeah (1 Chronicles 12:3) who resorted to David at Ziklag.
(7.) One of the officers of David's household (1 Chronicles 27:28).
(8.) Son of Becher and head of a Benjamite house (1 Chronicles 7:8).
Jehoash:
Jehovah-given. (1.) The son of King Ahaziah. While yet an infant, he was saved from the general massacre of the family by his aunt Jehosheba, and was apparently the only surviving descendant of Solomon (2Ch 21:4,17). His uncle, the high priest Jehoiada, brought him forth to public notice when he was eight years of age, and crowned and anointed him king of Judah with the usual ceremonies. Athaliah was taken by surprise when she heard the shout of the people, "Long live the king;" and when she appeared in the temple, Jehoiada commanded her to be led forth to death (2Ki 11:13-20). While the high priest lived, Jehoash favoured the worship of God and observed the law; but on his death he fell away into evil courses, and the land was defiled with idolatry. Zechariah, the son and successor of the high priest, was put to death. These evil deeds brought down on the land the judgement of God, and it was oppressed by the Syrian invaders. He is one of the three kings omitted by Matthew (Mat 1:8) in the genealogy of Christ, the other two being Ahaziah and Amaziah. He was buried in the city of David (2Ki 12:21). (See JOASH [4].)
(2.) The son and successor of Jehoahaz, king of Israel (2Ki 14:1; 2Ki 12:1; 13:10). When he ascended the throne the kingdom was suffering from the invasion of the Syrians. Hazael "was cutting Israel short." He tolerated the worship of the golden calves, yet seems to have manifested a character of sincere devotion to the God of his fathers. He held the prophet Elisha in honour, and wept by his bedside when he was dying, addressing him in the words Elisha himself had used when Elijah was carried up into heaven: "O my father, my father, the chariot of Israel and the horsemen thereof." He was afterwards involved in war with Amaziah, the king of Judah (2Ch 25:23-24), whom he utterly defeated at Beth-shemesh, on the borders of Dan and Philistia, and advancing on Jerusalem, broke down a portion of the wall, and carried away the treasures of the temple and the palace. He soon after died (B.C. 825), and was buried in Samaria (2Ki 14:1-17,19,20). He was succeeded by his son. (See JOASH [5.].)
