In the fifteenth year of Amaziah, the son of Joash king of Judah, Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel began to reign in Samaria,.... So that he reigned fourteen or fifteen years contemporary with him; for Amaziah reigned twenty nine years: and reigned forty and one years; Josephus says (i) forty, giving only the round number. (i) Ut supra, (Antiqu. l. 9.) c. 10. sect. 1.
