2 Kings8:18

18 And he walked in the way of the kings of Israel , as did the house of Ahab: for the daughter of Ahab was his wife; and he did evil in the sight of the LORD.

After his Fathers Death.

Athaliah, ver. 26. This unequal Marriage, though Iehoshaphat possibly designed it as a mean of Uniting the two Kingdoms under one Head, and in the True Religion, is here and elsewhere noted, as the cause both of the great wickedness of his Posterity, and of those sore Calamities which befel them.

Marginal references: Ver. 26.
