The reference to Jeroboam II is helpful in restricting the date of Amos' vision, more so than the reference to Uzziah's long reign of 52 years. According to <a href="/wiki/Edwin_R._Thiele" title="Edwin R. Thiele">Thiele's</a> widely accepted chronology, Jeroboam II began a coregency with his father in 793/792, became sole regent in 782/781, and died in late summer or the fall of 753 BC.<sup id="cite_ref-thiele_3-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-thiele-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Assuming that the prophecy took place after Uzziah became sole regent in 768/767, Amos' prophecy can be dated to some time after that and some time before Jeroboam's death in 753 BC, with the earthquake two years after that.

They are inconsistent with the tradition, found in Josephus<sup id="cite_ref-23" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-23"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>22<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and the <a href="/wiki/Talmud" title="Talmud">Talmud</a> but not in the Bible, that the earthquake occurred when Uzziah entered the Temple to offer incense, accepting that the beginning of the Uzziah/Jotham coregency began sometime in the six-month period after Nisan 1 of 750 BC. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Further_chronological_notes">Further chronological notes</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Uzziah&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Further chronological notes"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The calendars for reckoning the years of kings in Judah and Israel were offset by six months, that of Judah starting in Tishri (in the fall) and that of Israel in Nisan (in the spring). Cross-synchronizations between the two kingdoms therefore often allow narrowing of the beginning and/or ending dates of a king to within a six-month range. For Uzziah, the Scriptural data allow the narrowing of the beginning of his sole reign to some time between Nisan 1 of 767 BCE and the day before Tishri 1 of the same year. </p><p>Some writers object to the use of coregencies in determining the dates of the kings of Judah and Israel, saying that there should be explicit reference to coregencies if they existed. Since there is no word for "coregency" in Biblical Hebrew, an explicit mention using this word is not found. Coregencies are well attested in Egypt,<sup id="cite_ref-24" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>23<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and in giving the year of their reign, the timelines of the pharaohs do not relate whether it is measured from a coregency. Egyptologists must determine the existence of a coregency from a comparison of chronological data, just as Thiele and those who have followed him have done from the chronological data of Scripture. </p><p>In the case of Uzziah, however, the statement that after he was stricken with leprosy, his son Jotham had charge of the palace and governed the people of the land (<a href="https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Bible_(King_James)/2_Kings#15:5" class="extiw" title="s:Bible (King James)/2 Kings">2 Kings 15:5</a>) is a fairly straightforward indication of what in modern terms is called a coregency. Also there must have been a coregency in the beginning of Uzziah reign, as the bible states he became king in the 27th year of Jerobeam II, his father Amaziah ruled for 29 years. Amaziah is said to have become king in the second year of Joash from Israel, who ruled for 16 years, so Amaziah's death should then have been in de 14 year of Jerobeam II, creating a gap of more than a decade that can only be filled by coregencies, with years counted including coregencies (as done in Egypt). </p><p>Not all of the coregencies for the kings of Judah and Israel are as easy to identify as the Uzziah/Jotham coregency indicated by 2 Kings 15:5, but those who ignore coregencies in constructing the history of this time have failed to produce any chronology for the period that has found widespread acceptance.
