The verb זָקֵן (zaqen) means to be or become old. It captures the process of aging, indicating that Jehoiada was advanced in years and had reached a significant stage in life. This word emphasizes the natural progression of life and the wisdom that often accompanies age.
The use of זָקֵן here reflects not just the physical state of being old but also the respect and honor given to those who have lived long and fulfilled lives. It suggests a life well-lived, filled with experiences and accomplishments.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against. The BSB has 130, which is consistent across many translations.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb is וַיִּזְקַ֧ן (and he became old), which governs the sentence. Following it are two additional verbs: וַיִּשְׂבַּ֥ע (and he was satisfied) and וַיָּמֹ֑ת (and he died), creating a sequential flow of events.
The structure emphasizes the progression of Jehoiada's life, from aging to satisfaction and finally to death, illustrating a complete life cycle.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint uses ἐγήρασεν for זָקֵן, which means 'he grew old.' This choice aligns closely with the Hebrew meaning, emphasizing the aging process.
The Greek word ἐτελεύτησεν for וַיָּמֹ֑ת indicates a formal end, which resonates with the finality of death in both texts.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text states that Jehoiada died at the age of 130, while the Septuagint agrees with this age but presents the text in a different word order and structure. The Samaritan Pentateuch and the Dead Sea Scrolls do not provide a differing account for this verse, as they are not available for comparison here. Thus, the primary point of agreement between the Masoretic Text and the Septuagint is the age of Jehoiada at his death, which is consistently noted as 130 years.
וַיִּזְקַ֧ן יְהוֹיָדָ֛ע וַיִּשְׂבַּ֥ע יָמִ֖ים וַיָּמֹ֑ת בֶּן־ מֵאָ֧ה וּשְׁלֹשִׁ֛ים שָׁנָ֖ה בְּמוֹתֽוֹ׃

Jehoiada was "the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel" (2Sa 23:20), but commentators read with Septuagint and Ewald, "Benaiah (the son of Jehoiada) a man of valor." Kabzeel was a town belonging to Judah on the border of Edom in the South (Jos 15:21).

He married Jehosheba, or Jehoshabeath, the daughter of king Jehoram (2 Chr. 22:11), and took an active part along with his wife in the preservation and training of Jehoash when Athaliah slew all the royal family of Judah.
The plans he adopted in replacing Jehoash on the throne of his ancestors are described in 2 Kings 11:2; 12:2; 2 Chr. 22:11; 23:24. He was among the foremost of the benefactors of the kingdom, and at his death was buried in the city of David among the kings of…

In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

That holy thing that shall be born of thee. Luke 1:1.
Hence of is the sign of the genitive case, the case that denotes production; as the son of man, the son proceeding from man, produced from man. This is the primary sense, although we now say, produced by man. 'Part of these were slain; ' that is, a number separate, for part denotes a division; the sense then is, a number from or out of the whole were slain. So also, 'some of these were slain; ' that is…
