Context — Jeroboam II Succeeds Jehoash in Israel
13There at Beth-shemesh, Jehoash king of Israel captured Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Ahaziah. Then Jehoash went to Jerusalem and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Ephraim Gate to the Corner Gate—a section of four hundred cubits.
14He took all the gold and silver and all the articles found in the house of the LORD and in the treasuries of the royal palace, as well as some hostages. Then he returned to Samaria.
15As for the rest of the acts of Jehoash, along with his accomplishments, his might, and how he waged war against Amaziah king of Judah, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel?
16And Jehoash rested with his fathers and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel. And his son Jeroboam reigned in his place. 17Amaziah son of Joash king of Judah lived for fifteen years after the death of Jehoash son of Jehoahaz king of Israel.Cross References

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on 2 Kings 14:15
And Judah was put to the worse before Israel; and they fled every man to their tents. No JFB commentary on these verses.
Trapp's Commentary on 2 Kings 14:15
2 Kings 14:15 Now the rest of the acts of Jehoash which he did, and his might, and how he fought with Amaziah king of Judah, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?Ver. 15. And his might.] Showed against the Syrians chiefly.
Ellicott's Commentary on 2 Kings 14:15
(15, 16) Now the rest . . .—Comp. 2 Kings 13:12-13, where the reign of Jehoash is already summed up, though not altogether in the same phraseology. The compiler probably found 2 Kings 14:15-16, in their present position in the document from which he derived the entire section, 2 Kings 14:8-17; a document which was not the same as that upon which 2 Kings 13 depends, as appears from the differences of language in the two passages. The two verses are almost necessary here as a suitable introduction of the statement of 2 Kings 14:17, that Amaziah survived Jehoash by fifteen years.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on 2 Kings 14:15
Verse 15. How he fought with Amaziah] The only fighting between them was the battle already mentioned; and this is minutely related in 2 Chronicles 25:21-24.
Cambridge Bible on 2 Kings 14:15
15. the rest of the acts of Jehoash] The repetition of this sentence, which had been given in nearly the same terms in 2 Kings 13:12, shews us that the compiler probably used two documents, and copied from one in the former chapter, and from the other here. The words of this chapter are more in accord with the usual formula. In 2 Kings 13:13 the expression ‘and Jeroboam sat upon his throne’ is not so common as ‘Jeroboam his son reigned in his stead’.
Barnes' Notes on 2 Kings 14:15
These two verses (repeated from 2 Kings 13:12-13) are out of place here, where they interrupt the history of Amaziah’s reign.
