The only "Queen" of Israel
She was the daughter of King Ahab and Jezebel. She was also the mother of Ahaziah, who was killed with no one left in his house to retain rule of the Kingdom of Israel. She ruled the land for six years. Who is she?
(Hint: 2 Chronicles 22)
Who is Queen Athaliah:
10 When Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she proceeded to destroy the whole royal family of the house of Judah. 11 But Jehosheba, the daughter of King Jehoram, took Joash son of Ahaziah and stole him away from among the royal princes who were about to be murdered and put him and his nurse in a bedroom. Because Jehosheba, the daughter of King Jehoram and wife of the priest Jehoiada, was Ahaziah’s sister, she hid the child from Athaliah so she could not kill him. 12 He remained hidden with them at the temple of God for six years while Athaliah ruled the land.
