18:2 To reign - It is not certain that Ahaz lived only thirty six years, for those sixteen years which he reigned, may be computed, not from the first beginning of his reign, when he reigned with his father; which was at the twentieth year of his age, but from the beginning of his reigning alone.

King James Translators' Notes

Abi: also called, Abijah

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

18:1-8 Hezekiah was a true son of David. Some others did that which was right, but not like David. Let us not suppose that when times and men are bad, they must needs grow worse and worse; that does not follow: after many bad kings, God raised one up like David himself. The brazen serpent had been carefully preserved, as a memorial of God's goodness to their fathers in the wilderness; but it was idle and wicked to burn incense to it. All helps to devotion, not warranted by the word of God, interrupt the exercise of faith; they always lead to superstition and other dangerous evils. Human nature perverts every thing of this kind. True faith needs not such aids; the word of God, daily thought upon and prayed over, is all the outward help we need.

2 Chronicles 29:1 Hezekiah became king when he was twenty-five years old; and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah.

2 Chronicles 29:2 He did right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father David had done. (NASB ©1995)

Abi Abijah Daughter Jerusalem Mother's Nine Reign Reigned Reigning Ruling Twenty Twenty-five Twenty-nine Zachariah Zechariah Zechari'ah

Abijah Daughter Five Jerusalem Mother Mother's Nine Reign Reigned Reigning Ruling Twenty Twenty-Five Twenty-Nine Zachariah Zechariah Zechari'ah

Abijah Daughter Five Jerusalem Mother Mother's Nine Reign Reigned Reigning Ruling Twenty Twenty-Five Twenty-Nine Zachariah Zechariah Zechari'ah

Twenty and five years old was he when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty and nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Abi, the daughter of Zachariah.

Twenty and five years old As Ahaz was 20 years old when he began to reign, and died when he had reigned 16 years, his whole age only amounted to 36 years; and as Hezekiah was, at least, entering on his 25th year when he began to reign, then Ahaz must have been under 12 years of age when his son was born! This is not at all impossible: and there are well-attested facts of men having children at as early a period, especially in eastern countries.
