Gideon declares (Judges 6:15) that the family is the poorest in Manasseh, words similar to those of Saul (1 Samuel 9:21), and not to be taken too literally.

Further, the altar that Joash had was that used by the community (Judges 6:28), so that he would be the priest, not only of his own family qua paterfamilias, but also of the community in virtue of his position as chief.

 The Joash Syndrome - Moriel Ministries
Joash was a good king who all his life did much good in the sight of The Lord.

Thinking of King Joash, we can only pray the way he sadly ended his ministry after so many years of so much good will not be the road David Wilkerson travels on.

By the time Joash was born Baal worship was firmly entrenched in Judah though there were still godly people in the land, notably Jehoiada the high priest and uncle of Joash.
