Contextual Overview

⁸ In the thirty-eighth year of Azaliah, king of Judah, Zechariah, son of Jeroboam, was king over Israel for six months. ⁹ And he did evil in the eyes of the Lord, as his father had done, not turning away from the sin which Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, did and made Israel do. ¹⁰ And Shallum, the son of Jabesh, made a secret design against him, and, attacking him in Ibleam, put him to death and became king in his place. ¹¹ Now the rest of the acts of Zechariah are recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel. ¹² This was what the Lord had said to Jehu, Your sons to the fourth generation will be kings of Israel. And so it came about. ¹³ Shallum, the son of Jabesh, became king in the thirty-ninth year of Uzziah, king of Judah; and he was ruling in Samaria for the space of one month. ¹⁴ Then Menahem, the son of Gadi, went up from Tirzah and came to Samaria, and attacking Shallum, son of Jabesh, in Samaria, put him to death and made himself king in his place. ¹⁵ Now the rest of the acts of Shallum, and the secret design which he made, are recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel. ¹⁶ Then Menahem sent destruction on Tappuah and all the people in it, and its limits, from Tirzah, because they would not let him come in; and he had all the women who were with child cut open. ¹⁷ In the thirty-ninth year of Azariah, king of Judah, Menahem, the son of Gadi, became king over Israel, and was ruling in Samaria for ten years.
