Introductory Note to Clement of Alexandria
[2049] Supposed to be “son of Oded” or “Adad,” i.e., Azarias.
[2050] i.e., of Ochozias.
[2051] Athalia.
[2052] She was slain in the seventh year of her reign.
[2053] Not of her brother, but of her son Ahaziah, all of whom she slew except Joash.
[2054] Clement is wrong in asserting that Amos the prophet was the father of Isaiah. The names are written differently in Hebrew, though the same in Greek.
[2055] By a strange mistake Hosea king of Israel is reckoned among the kings of Judah.
[2059] Huldah.
[2060] Zephaniah.
[2061] ὀ Ἰωσίου, the reading of the text, is probably corrupt.
[2062] Josias.
[2063] ὀ καὶ Ἰωάχας, instead of which the text has καὶ Ἰωάχας.
[2064] The names, however, were not the same. The name of the latter was Jehoiachin. The former in Hebrew was written יהויקים, the latter יהויכין. By copyists they were often confounded, as here by Clement.
[2065] Lowth suplies Ἰεζεκιήλ, which is wanting in the text.
[2066] He was a contemporary of Jeremiah, but was killed before the time of Zedekiah by Joachin. Jer. xxvi. 20.
[2067] Habakkuk.
[2068] Juba.
[2069] Malachi, my angel or messenger. [Again, p. 331, infra.]
