   Baasha began to reign in the third year of Asa, and reigned 24
   years; yet he died and was succeeded by Elah in the 26th year
   of Asa; and, in like manner, Elah, who began to reign in the
   26th year of Asa, and was killed in the 27th, is said to have
   reigned two years.  Thus it is evident that a part of a year
   is calculated as a whole year.  In the Chinese annals, the
   whole year in which a king dies is ascribed to his reign, the
   years of the succeeding king being reckoned only from the
   beginning of the following year.
