 | | "Joash, [Y""w?sh], or [Y""?sh], is merely an abbreviation of Jehoash, [Yeh""w??sh], by the elision of [H?], hay, and here also of [V?v], wav. |
 | | As Joash was hidden six years in the temple, and was but seven when he came to the throne, he could have been but one year old when secreted by his aunt. |
