The summary Biblical treatment of king Jehoahaz of Israel in 2 Kgs 13,1-9 (+ 22-23) poses a variety of problems: textual, chronological, redactional and compositional. This essay provides a detailed comparison of Josephus' account of Jehoahaz in Ant. 9.173-176 with its Biblical source. The comparison aims to see what can be determined concerning, e.g., the text- form(-s) of 2 Kgs 13 available to Josephus, his handling of the problems presented by the Biblical treatment of Jehoahaz and his own personal contributions in his retelling of that king's story.
