Ish-bosheth Made King of Israel (2SA 2:8-11)

[2:8] But Abner the son of Ner, commander of Saul’s army, took Ish-Bosheth the son of Saul and brought him over to Mahanaim,

[2:9] and he made him king over Gilead and the Ashurites and Jezreel and Ephraim and Benjamin and all Israel.

[2:10] Ish-bosheth, Saul’s son, was forty years old when he began to reign over Israel, and he reigned two years. But the house of Judah followed David.

[2:11] And the time that David was king in Hebron over the house of Judah was seven years and six months.
