2 Kings 15:38
And Jotham slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead. And Jotham slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Ahaz his son reigned in his stead.
Jotham died and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father, and his son Ahaz reigned in his stead. Jotham is counted among the good kings of Judah, while Ahaz who followed him was weak. The succession from Jotham to Ahaz is one link in the line of Judah's kings from Ahaziah through Jehoahaz covered in 2 Kings 7-23.
That line covers a period of nearly 300 years running alongside the kings of Israel from Joram to Hoshea, when Israel ended in Assyrian captivity. It belongs to the time of the prophets Hosea, Jonah, and Amos in Israel and Joel, Isaiah, Micah, Jeremiah, Zephaniah, and Nahum in Judah, including the sixty-year ministry of Elisha ending under Jehoash. It forms part of the connected history of the closing kings of Judah, whose reigns were wicked and weak apart from the bright reformation conducted under the good king Josiah. It marks part of Judah's spotted record in which the kingdom always prospered under righteous, faithful rulers yet repeatedly turned after such prosperity from God to the grossest idolatry, bringing calamity upon rulers and people.
