Jotham's accession — 'Jotham was twenty-five years old when he began to reign, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jerushah daughter of Zadok' (יותם בן עשׂרים וחמש שׁנה בממלכו וששׁ עשׂרה שׁנה מלך בירושׁלם). The 16-year reign is substantial. The mother's name (Jerushah, daughter of Zadok the priest) suggests priestly alliance.
