About Azubah
Azubah was the wife of King Asa and the mother of King Jehoshaphat, who ruled over the Kingdom of Judah. She is mentioned in 1Ki.22.42 and 2Ch.20.31, which provide the introductory information about Jehoshaphat as he became king. Both passages state that Jehoshaphat's mother's name was Azubah, and identify her as the daughter of Shilhi.
