Chapter overview (whole chapter)
Joash, guided by the priest Jehoiada, ordered the repair of the temple by collecting money from the people, and after Jehoiada's death Joash turned to idolatry and had Jehoiada's son Zechariah stoned to death for rebuking him. As judgment, a small Syrian army defeated Judah's much larger force, and Joash was later assassinated by his own servants in his bed.
