Verse 6 is found in chapter 21 of 2 Chronicles. Jehoshaphat dies and Jehoram receives the kingdom. Jehoram kills his brothers to secure power and marries a daughter of Ahab. The chronicler contrasts his rule with that of his father and explains that despite his wickedness, God did not destroy David’s house because of the covenant established with David.
