Exegesis
The move to ba-chadar ha-mitot {בַּחֲדַר הַמִּטּוֹת | in the bedchamber} marks a secure hiding place. Identification of Jehosheba as eshet Yehoiada ha-kohen underscores her protective authority.
In context — 2 Chronicles 22:11
And Jehosheba, the daughter of the king, took Joash, the son of Ahaziah, and stole him away from among the king’s sons who were being killed. She placed him and his nurse in the bedchamber and hid him—Jehosheba, the daughter of King Jehoram and wife of Jehoiada the priest—because she was Ahaziah’s sister, so that Athaliah did not put him to death.
