35 It was Jotham who rebuilt the Upper Gate that led into the court around the Lord's temple. But the local shrines were not destroyed, and they were still used as places for offering sacrifices.
36 Everything else Jotham did while he was king is written in The History of the Kings of Judah.
37 During his rule, the Lord let King Rezin of Syria and King Pekah of Israel start attacking Judah.
38 Jotham died and was buried beside his ancestors in Jerusalem, and his son Ahaz became king.
