	Nabataea: Bible Chronologies Solomon to Hezekiah Part I
		II Chronicles 21:4 tells us Jehoram "slew all his brethren" when he became king, but that the word "all" may have exceptions in such cases is shown by similar statements in II Chronicles 22:10-11 and Judges 8:30-31, 9:5,18,24, where in both instances, one escaped.
		Jeroboam's death was fifteen years before Uzziah's: the co-regency may therefore have covered more than these fifteen years, so in Table I Jotham's co-regency is dated as beginning in 764 BC., sixteen years before Uzziah died in 748 BC., and one year before Jeroboam II died.
		Jeroboam's reign is stated to have lasted twenty-two years (I Kings 14:20) but evidently was little more than half a year over twenty-one, for it began the same year as Pehobam's 957 BC and ended in the second year of Asa's co-regency, early in 936 BC (I Kings 12:1-20; 15:25).
