The Trauels of Iotham King of Iudah.

IOtham signifies, Whole and Perfect. He succeeded his father Azariah when he was about 25 yeares of age, anno mundi 3190, and before Christ, 778. He raigned ouer Iudah 17 yeares, vn∣till the 41 yeare of his age. His mothers name was Icruscha, so called from an inheritance or possession. He began his raigne in the second yeare of Pekah King of Israel, and continued it vntill the 17 yeare of his gouernment, 2 Reg. 15. 17.

When this noble Prince had rebuilded and richly adorned the porch of the house of the Lord, he went from Ierusalem and inua∣ded the countrey of the Ammonites (which was 60 miles,) con∣quered their King, and made the whole land pay him tribute, e∣uen a hundred talents of siluer of the common weight, and 10000 measure of Wheate, and 10000 of Barley yearely. This tribute continued three yeares.

From the land of the Ammonites he went backe to Ierusalem, which was 60 miles; where after he had adorned the Citie and Temple with many Princely buildings, hee died, about the 41 yeare of his age, 2 Reg. 15. So all his trauels were 120 miles.
