John Trapp Complete Commentary

2 Chronicles 22:12

But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king's sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse in a bedchamber. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest, (for she was the sister of Ahaziah,) hid him from Athaliah, so that she slew him not. 2Ch 22:12 And he was with them hid in the house of God six years: and Athaliah reigned over the land.
