Joram (the brother of Ahaziah, son of Ahab) becomes the new king of Israel. Of course, he’s no better than his father, although scripture does say that he removed the sacred stone of Baal that his father had put in Samaria. Although he may not be a follower of Baal, he still follows Jeroboam, who led all of Israel astray.
Mesha, the king of Moab, sees the chaos in Israel. With Ahab’s death and the short two-year reign of Ahaziah, with no son to ascend to the throne, Mesha sees an opportunity to wiggle out of the taxation (tribute) that Israel has advocated all the way back since David made it a subject to Israel.
