Contextual Overview

⁸ In the thirty-eighth year of `Azaryah king of Yehudah did Zekharyah the son of Yarov`am reign over Yisra'el in Shomron six months. ⁹ He did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, as his fathers had done: he didn't depart from the sins of Yarov`am the son of Nevat, with which he made Yisra'el to sin. <sup>10</sup> Shallum the son of Yavesh conspired against him, and struck him before the people, and killed him, and reigned in his place. <sup>11</sup> Now the rest of the acts of Zekharyah, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Yisra'el. <sup>12</sup> This was the word of the LORD which he spoke to Yehu, saying, Your sons to the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Yisra'el. So it came to pass. <sup>13</sup> Shallum the son of Yavesh began to reign in the nine and thirtieth year of `Uzziyah king of Yehudah; and he reigned the space of a month in Shomron. ¹⁴ Menachem the son of Gadi went up from Tirtzah, and came to Shomron, and struck Shallum the son of Yavesh in Shomron, and killed him, and reigned in his place. ¹⁵ Now the rest of the acts of Shallum, and his conspiracy which he made, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Yisra'el. ¹⁶ Then Menachem struck Tifsach, and all who were therein, and the borders of it, from Tirtzah: because they didn't open to him, therefore he struck it; and all the women therein who were with child he ripped up. ¹⁷ In the nine and thirtieth year of `Azaryah king of Yehudah began Menachem the son of Gadi to reign over Yisra'el, [and reigned] ten years in Shomron.
