Contextual Overview
1 twenty-five years old, was Jotham when he began to reign, and, sixteen years, reigned he in Jerusalem, - and, the name of his mother, was Jerushah, daughter of Zadok. 2 And he did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, according to all that Uzziah his father had done, only he entered not into the temple of Yahweh, - though still were the people acting corruptly. 3 He, built the upper gate of the house of Yahweh,-and, on the wall of Ophel, built he extensively. 4 Cities also, built he, in the hill country of Judah, - and, in the thick woods, built he fortresses and towers. 5 He, also made war against the king of the sons of Ammon, and prevailed against them, and the sons of Ammon gave him, during that year, a hundred talents of silver, and ten thousand measures of wheat, and, of barley, ten thousand, - this, did the sons of Ammon render him, both in the second year, and the third. 6 So Jotham strengthened himself, - for he fixed his ways before Yahweh his God. 7 But, the rest of the story of Jotham, and all his wars, and his ways, lo! there they are written in the book of the Kings of Israel and Judah. 8 Twenty-five years old, was he when he began to reign, - and, sixteen years, reigned he in Jerusalem. 9 And Jotham slept with his fathers, and they buried him, in the city of David, - and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.
