2 Kings 13

Jehoahaz (Yehu'aḥaz) succeeds Jehu as king of Israel, continuing sin against YHWH, who delivers him to Hazael and Ben-hadad; YHWH shows mercy due to covenant pleas. Jehoash (Yo'ash) succeeds, and prophet Elisha on his deathbed instructs him to defeat Aram thrice, symbolized by arrows, foreshadowing victories.[7][8]
