Usage: Joachaz is a proper noun used as a name for individuals in the Hebrew Bible. It is specifically used to refer to two kings of Judah and Israel. Context: • Joachaz of Judah: Also known as Jehoahaz, he was the son of King Josiah and became king of Judah after his father's death. His reign was short-lived, lasting only three months before he was deposed by Pharaoh Neco of Egypt and taken captive to Egypt, where he died. His reign is noted in 2 Kings 23:31-34 and 2 Chronicles 36:1-4. The Berean Standard Bible states, "Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem three months. His mother’s name was Hamutal daughter of Jeremiah; she was from Libnah" (2 Kings 23:31, BSB). • Joachaz of Israel: Also known as Jehoahaz, he was the son of Jehu and became king of Israel. His reign lasted seventeen years, during which he faced significant challenges from the Arameans. Despite his initial unfaithfulness, he sought the LORD's favor, and God provided deliverance for Israel. His story is recorded in 2 Kings 13:1-9. The Berean Standard Bible notes, "In the twenty-third year of Joash son of Ahaziah, king of Judah, Jehoahaz son of Jehu became king of Israel in Samaria, and he reigned seventeen years" (2 Kings 13:1, BSB).
