Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There are no direct Greek equivalents for the Hebrew name Joash in the Strong's Greek lexicon. However, the name may appear in Greek translations of the Old Testament, such as the Septuagint, as Ιωας (Ioas).

Usage: Joash is a proper noun used as a masculine name in the Hebrew Bible. It refers to several individuals, most notably a king of Judah and a king of Israel.

Context: • Joash, King of Judah: Joash was the son of Ahaziah and became king of Judah after being hidden for six years by his aunt Jehosheba to protect him from Athaliah's massacre of the royal family. He began his reign at the age of seven and ruled for forty years (2 Kings 11:2-21; 2 Chronicles 22:11-24:27). Under the guidance of Jehoiada the priest, Joash restored the temple and reestablished proper worship. However, after Jehoiada's death, Joash turned away from God, leading to his assassination by his own officials.

• Joash, King of Israel: Also known as Jehoash, he was the son of Jehoahaz and reigned over Israel for sixteen years (2 Kings 13:10-25). He continued the idolatrous practices of Jeroboam but achieved military successes against Aram and recaptured cities previously lost. Joash also had a notable encounter with the prophet Elisha before the latter's death.

• Other Individuals Named Joash: The name Joash is also attributed to other lesser-known figures in the Bible, including a descendant of Shelah (1 Chronicles 4:22), a Benjamite (1 Chronicles 7:8), and a member of David's officers (1 Chronicles 12:3).
