2 Kings 8:26 Ahaziah was 22 years old when he began his reign after his father died.
2 Chronicles 22:2 Ahaziah was 42 when he began his reign.
I've heard numerous explanations; I am looking for a consensus viewpoint.
Was there a mistranslation as it was supposed to say "Sum of Years" as in the 42 years of reign that had passed since the house of Omri. Or was it mistranslated and intended to say 22 years like 2 Kings. Or is there another explanation.
