2 KINGS XV. vers. 30, 31.

[World 3271] [Ahaz 4] [Pekah 20] [Division 242] PEKAH before he dieth loseth all Gilead and Ga∣lilee, and at last is slain himself by Hoshea the son of Elah. In the twentieth year of Jotham the son of Uzziah. Now is revenge taken on Pekah for all his cruel∣ty against Judah: but it is not for Ahaz his sake; therefore it is not dated by his time, but by Jothams in the grave.

[Ahaz 5] [Pekah 1] [Division 243] After the death of Pekah, [Ahaz 6] [Pekah 2] [Division 244] there is no mention of any King [Ahaz 7] [Pekah 3] [Division 245] in the Throne of Israel, for [Ahaz 8] [Pekah 4] [Division 246] compleat seven years together: [Ahaz 9] [Pekah 5] [Division 247] For though Hoshea slew Elah in [Ahaz 10] [Pekah 6] [Division 248] the fourth of Ahaz, which is [Ahaz 11] [Pekah 7] [Division 249] called Jothams twentieth, yet is not he said to raign till Ahaz his twelfth year, 2 King. 17. 1. The reason of this will be worth the labour a little to inquire af∣ter, for the resolving of this matter, doth not only clear this place, but also gives light to one or two places more, which are of obscurity.
