Verse 17 is found in chapter 11 of 2 Kings. Jehoiada establishes a covenant between the Lord, the king, and the people, and afterward the temple of Baal is destroyed and order is restored around the temple of the Lord. Joash’s coronation is linked to a renewal of the relationship between the people and God. The chapter ends by noting that Joash was seven years old when he began to reign. The political restoration takes on theological significance because it includes renewed worship and a break with Athaliah’s influence. The true goal of the transition is not merely to recover the throne, but to reorder national life around the covenant.
