2 Chronicles 22:2

From Textus Receptus

2 Chronicles 22:2 Forty and two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Athaliah the daughter of Omri.

Commentary

Ahaziah reigned as king twice. When he was 22, his father went battle for a year, then he ruled again 20 years later when the enemy was defeated and they reformed the Israeli government. Both times he reigned for 1 year. The first time, his reign was destroyed by the enemy, the second time, his reign was destroyed by his physical death.
