He is known for his religious reforms and efforts to bring the people back to the worship of Yahweh. Jehoshaphat strengthened the kingdom militarily and economically, forming alliances with the Kingdom of Israel. His reign is noted for a period of relative peace and prosperity, as well as for his judicial reforms, which emphasized justice and adherence to the Law of Moses.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>the same as <a href="/hebrew/3092.htm">Yehoshaphat</a>, q.v.<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Joshaphat <p>A form of <a href="/hebrew/3092.htm">Yhowshaphat</a>; Joshaphat, an Israelite -- Joshaphat. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/3092.htm">Yhowshaphat</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>וְיֽוֹשָׁפָ֡ט וְיוֹשָׁפָ֖ט ויושפט veyoshaFat wə·yō·wō·šā·p̄āṭ wəyōwōšāp̄āṭ<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/1_chronicles/11-43.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">1 Chronicles 11:43</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/11.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">בֶּֽן־ מַעֲכָ֔ה <b> וְיוֹשָׁפָ֖ט </b> הַמִּתְנִֽי׃ ס</span><br><a href="/kjvs/1_chronicles/11.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> of Maachah, <span class="itali">and Joshaphat</span> the Mithnite,<br><a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/11-43.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> the son of Maacah <span class="itali">and Joshaphat</span> the Mithnite<p><b><a href="/text/1_chronicles/15-24.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">1 Chronicles 15:24</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/15.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3"> וּשְׁבַנְיָ֡הוּ <b> וְיֽוֹשָׁפָ֡ט </b> וּנְתַנְאֵ֡ל וַעֲמָשַׂ֡י</span><br><a href="/kjvs/1_chronicles/15.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> And Shebaniah, <span class="itali">and Jehoshaphat,</span> and Nethaneel,<br><a href="/interlinear/1_chronicles/15-24.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> Shebaniah <span class="itali">and Jehoshaphat</span> Nethanel Amasai<p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_3146.htm">2 Occurrences</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_3146.htm">Strong's Hebrew 3146<br>2 Occurrences</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/veyoshafat_3146.htm">wə·yō·wō·šā·p̄āṭ — 2 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/hebrew/3145.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="3145"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="3145" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/3147.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="3147"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="3147" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
