2 Chronicles 22

Ahaziah, son of Jehoram, reigns wickedly in Jerusalem, advised by his mother Athaliah and the house of Ahab, allying with Joram of Israel against Hazael at Ramoth-Gilead, where his brothers' sons are slain by Jehu executing YHWH's judgment on Ahab's house[1][2][3]. Ahaziah is killed, Athaliah massacres the royal seed except Joash whom Jehoshabeath hides in the בית האלהים (House of God), preserving David's line by YHWH's covenant mercy[1][2][3].
