1 | Ahaziah a ruler at 22 or 42? | 2 Chr 22:2 | Makarios | 9175 | ||
Was Ahaziah 22 years old when he began to reign (as stated in 2 Kings 8:26) or 42 years old (as stated in 2 Chron 22:2 in the KJV, NKJV, Amplified, American Standard Version (1901), RSV, God's Word and NRSV)? Why only do the NASB, NIV, NCV, NLT and Young's Literal Translation only have this stated correctly? |

2 | Ahaziah a ruler at 22 or 42? | 2 Chr 22:2 | prayon | 9249 | ||
His reign lasted only one year beginning at age 22 (2Kings 8:25); the Masoretic Text of 2 Chron 22:2 gives his age as 42(Septuagint "twenty"; some manuscripts "twenty-two"). Taken froom the Eerdmans Bible Dictionary. | ||||||
3 | Ahaziah a ruler at 22 or 42? | 2 Chr 22:2 | Makarios | 9277 | ||
This is interesting! Did anyone notice that the Amplified Bible and the NASB (both the product of the Lockman Foundation) differ on this verse? Thank you prayon! :) |

Nolan ... If 42, then Ahaziah would be older than his father. 2 Chr. 21:20 says Jehoram was 32 when he became king and ruled 8 years, making him around 40 when he died. If his son was 42, uhm. Steve PS I am going thru the questions. You did ask many. Are these of your own thought? |

Ha! You are exactly right, Steve! And it couldn't be at all possible that he could have been older than his father, which would make a rendering of '42' in this verse as nothing but an error! :) Good observation! Yes, I have posted many questions this week, about 19 to be exact! I had them all written down here on a piece of paper on my desk, just waiting to be asked.. I was waiting for a 'low point' in the Forum when there really wasn't much interaction, and I always hope that my questions help to cause a stir and 'revive' the Forum again! If the Forum again becomes almost 'lifeless' in the middle of next week, then you can count on me asking the 10 brand new questions that I have written down here at my desk that have not been presented here to the Forum before (I've checked already) which will help to revive it again and promote contribution! Your Brother in Christ, Nolan |
