King Ahaziah of Judea: Son of King Joram. Reigned from 706-705 BCE. He was strongly influenced by his mother, Queen Athaliah the daughter of Jezebel, and encouraged idolatry amongst the populace. While Ahaziah was visiting his uncle, King Joram (son of Ahab) of Israel, Jehu revolted against Joram and killed Ahaziah together with the rest of Joram's family.
