BRAGADAYJAH 1095
Jehoash killed by his servants
At that time Hazael king of Syria went up and declared war on Gath,
and took it. And he set his face to invade Jerusalem. And so Jehoash took all
the holy and sacred things that his father Jehoshaphat, and Jehoram, and
Ahaziah his fathers had dedicated to the temple, together with his own hallowed
things, and all the gold found in the treasuries of the house of the Lord; as
well as the king’s house, and sent them to Hazael, king of Syria; and he went
away and did not attack Jerusalem. And after that Jozachar the son of Shimeath,
and Jehozabad, the son of Shomer, his servants, conspired against him, and smote
him, and he died; and they buried him with his father in the city of David and
Amaziah his son reigned in his stead.
