Melachim Bais 12:1 Meaning and Commentary

2 Kings 12:1

In the seventh year of Jehu Jehoash began to reign
So that he reigned twenty one or twenty two years contemporary with Jehu's reign, for Jehu reigned twenty eight years:

and forty years reigned he in Jerusalem;
the same number of years David and Solomon reigned:

and his mother's name was Zibiah of Beersheba;
a city in the tribe of Simeon, in the extreme part of the land of Canaan southward; her name in the Chaldee dialect is Tabitha, the same with Dorcas in Greek, ( Acts 9:36 ) .
