The inscriptions of this "Tell al-Rimah Stele" provide the first extrabiblical reference of King Jehoash, attest to the weakening of Syrian kingdom (cf. 2 Kings 13:5), and show the vassal status of the northern kingdom of Israel to the Assyrians.

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:
Jehu's son Jehoahaz became the king of Israel during the long reign of Joash, the king of Judah. [10] This is a period of a relatively long and internally stable dynasty, but starkly in contrast to problems from abroad, as Aram-Damascus became the superpower in the region, with bitter consequences for Israel (cf. verse 7).

Jehosheba and Jehoiada rescued Athaliah's one-year-old grandson, Joash, from Athaliah's slaughter.
