2 Chronicles 22:6

22:6 Joram returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds he received from the Syrians in Ramah when he fought against King Hazael of Syria. Ahaziah son of King Jehoram of Judah went down to visit Joram son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he had been wounded.


tn Heb “he”; the referent (Joram) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

tn Heb “which the Syrians inflicted [on] him.”

tc Most Hebrew mss read “Azariah.” A few Hebrew mss, the LXX, Vulgate, and Syriac read “Ahaziah” (cf. 2 Kgs 8:29).

tn Heb “because he was sick,” presumably referring to the wounds he received in the battle with the Syrians.
