There is no replacement for the Bible which has all the answers. II Kings 13:14 "Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he died. And Joash the king of Israel came down unto him, and wept over his face, and said, O my father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof." Joash is the correct answer. II Chronicles 24:1 "Joash was seven years old when he began to reign, and reigned forty years in Jerusalem..."Actually, Josiah was king in Jerusalem as well (Thus, Judah). Your answer might be a might bit more precise than the average reader is looking for. After Solomon's death the Nation of Israel split in two, with most of the tribes going to the North and following Jeroboam. Rehoboam, Solomon's Son, maintained control over the Southern kingdom which became known as Judah, the name of the bigger of the two tribes that remained with the southern Kingdom. Benjamin was the other southern tribe.Both Josiah and Joash were kings of the Southern Kingdom, and both brought some element of reform to the kingdom. In response to the question, Joash was the YOUNGER of the two, taking the throne when he was 7 years old._____________________________________________________________________The previous answer is wrong. Joash (also known as Jehoash) wasn't a king of Israel, he was a king of Judah. Josiah was the youngest king of Israel at age 8.Joash, at the age of seven.II Chronicles 24 v1.
