Bible Riddle: July 2002

Three by this name in the Bible are seen;
"Jehovah hath grasped," the name seems to mean.
All three experienced a common thing
For each one was the son of a king.

Each of the three held a scepter in his hand,
But they did not all rule the same land.
Of one's seventeen-year reign the scriptures tell;
His troubles were great for before idols he fell.

The second was chosen over his brother;
He reigned only months, no years as the other.
The third by another name is better known;
For only a year he occupied the throne.

If you know the history of Israel and Judah too,
The name of these kings should come to you.
