And since he had no son, Jehoram succeeded him in the second year of the reign of Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat over Judah.¹⁸As for the rest of the acts of Ahaziah, along with his accomplishments, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?

Summary

This verse concludes the account of King Ahaziah's reign, highlighting his lack of faith in seeking help from false gods instead of the true God of Israel. Despite the prophet Elijah's warnings and the miraculous judgment of fire from heaven, Ahaziah's refusal to repent ultimately leads to his death as prophesied. The verse serves as a sobering reminder of the consequences of turning away from God and the importance of genuine faith and obedience in His sight.
