Verse 4 is found in chapter 22 of 2 Chronicles. Ahaziah begins to reign and follows the ways of Ahab’s house under the influence of his family. He joins Jehoram of Israel in a campaign against Syria. The chronicler again shows how family alliances with the northern dynasty draw the kings of Judah toward decisions contrary to faithfulness to God.
