Pekah (Hebrew, open-eyed) (r. 759-739 BC according to Ussher, or r. 752-732 BC according to Thiele), son of Remaliah, was the eighteenth king of the Northern Kingdom of Israel. He came to the throne by murder, and the man who murdered him took his throne--whether immediately or after a nine-year interregnum is in dispute.
