Athaliah is the daughter of Omri. She's the wife of Joram (Jehoram) and the mother of Ahaziah. Athaliah means the Lord is strong. She's a descendant of Israel's kings, but she entered Judah's kingdom's lineage through marriage. After Ahaziah's son died, Athaliah murdered all heirs to the throne except one. She did not kill Joash (Jehoash) because his aunt hid him for six years. She illegally assumed leadership of the kingdom. Athaliah became the seventh king/queen of Judah, and she reigned for six years. Joash received the anointing as king of Judah at age seven. When Athaliah heard the commotion of the anointing ceremony, she screamed, "Treason, Treason." That same day, they slew Athaliah outside of the temple.
