2 Kings 13:25 suggests that Jehoahaz's son Joash, who recaptured a number of Israelite cities in three successful battles, could have been the deliverer referred to in 2 Kings 13:5, and the Geneva Study Bible maintains this view, [4] but the Jerusalem Bible [5] and the Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges [6] argue that Jeroboam II, Joash's son, was the deliverer, citing 2 Kings 14:27:
Jehoash (Hebrew: יְהוֹאָשׁ, Yəhōʾāš, "Yah-given"; Greek: Ιωας; Latin: Ioas), also known as Joash (in King James Version), Joas (in Douay–Rheims) or Joás (Hebrew: יוֹאָשׁ, Yōʾāš), [1] was the eighth king of Judah, and the sole surviving son of Ahaziah after the massacre of the royal family ordered by his grandmother, Athaliah.
Jehoash (Hebrew: יְהוֹאָשׁ Yəhō’āš or [1] יוֹאָשׁ Yō’āš; Israelian Hebrew: 𐤀𐤔𐤉𐤅 *’Āšīyāw; [2] Akkadian: 𒅀𒀪𒋢 Yaʾsu [ia-'-su]; Latin: Joas; fl. c. 790 BC), whose name means "Yahweh has given," [3] was the twelfth king of the ancient northern Kingdom of Israel (Samaria) and the son of Jehoahaz. [4]
Jehoahaz III of Judah (Hebrew: יְהוֹאָחָז, Yǝhōʾāḥāz, "Yahweh has held"; Greek: Ιωαχαζ Iōakhaz; Latin: Joachaz), also called Shallum, [1] was the seventeenth king of Judah (3 months in 609 BC) and the fourth son [2] of king Josiah whom he succeeded. [3]

Next, the altars of Baal are destroyed, thus ending the religion in Judah as well. Finally, Joash is taken back to the palace and enthroned. Joash is a good king, but does not remove the high places.
