Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Chronicles 24:26

These are they that conspired against him - The two persons here mentioned were certainly not Jews; the mother of one was an Ammonitess, and the mother of the other was a Moabitess. Who their fathers were we know not; they were probably foreigners and aliens. Some suppose that these persons were of the king's chamber, and therefore could have the easiest access to him. It has been, and is still, the folly of kings to have foreigners for their valets and most confidential... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Chronicles 24:27

The greatness of the burdens laid upon him - Meaning, probably, the heavy tribute laid upon him by the Syrians; though some think the vast sums amassed for the repairs of the temple are here intended. Written in the story - מדרש midrash , the commentary, of the book of Kings. We have met with this before; but these works are all lost, except the extracts found in Kings, Chronicles, and Ezra. These abridgments were the cause of the neglect, and finally of the... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 2 Chronicles 24:1-27

The sad and strange unreliableness of human disposition and life here. One of the strangest of all the sadnesses of human life is the uncertainty and unreliableness of human disposition, which it is so constantly exposing to view. Not only has the fairest promise vanished (like the sun of many a morning) long before the character could be supposed to be firm or even fairly formed, but after the period justly esteemed critical has passed, after fruit has set, and even after some fruit has... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 2 Chronicles 24:17-22

The downward career of a king. I. JOASH 'S TEMPTATION . ( 2 Chronicles 24:17 .) 1 . When it came. "After Jehoiada's death,", when the weakling king, having lost his counsellor, was left to the guidance of his own vain heart and foolish understanding. Temptations mostly assail men in their moments of weakness. Eve was probably assaulted in the absence of Adam ( Genesis 3:1 ); David, certainly, in the absence of Nathan ( 2 Samuel 11:2 ); Job, when enfeebled through affliction... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 2 Chronicles 24:17-25

Sad successive stages. With the seventeenth verse of this chapter there commences a very painful record. From one who had been so mercifully spared, so admirably trained, so bountifully blessed, as was King Joash, much better things might have been expected. It is the melancholy story of rapid degeneracy, and a miserable and dishonourable end. I. DEPARTURE FROM THE LIVING GOD . Not being "rooted and grounded" in reverence and in attachment to Jehovah, as soon as the directing... read more

Stoned him . Yet this was their Law's punishment for themselves, for idolaters (Le 2 Chronicles 20:2 ). At the commandment of the king. The king, who had yielded to the flattering obeisance and worship of the princes, is now driven on a grievous length further. In the court of the house of the Lord .

Remembered not the kindness ( Genesis 40:23 ). The Lord look upon it, and require it . So, too, the Revised Version, which also, according to its custom, removes the italic type from the two neuter pronouns "it." But probabaly a better and correcter rendering is, "The Lord will see and will require" (for it is not necessary to regard this as a prayer of Zechariah); and thus bring it into comparison with those divinest prayers of the Saviour and of St. Stephen. The words on dying... read more

At the end of the year ; Hebrew, תְּקוּפַת ; margin, both of the Authorized Version and the Revised Version, revolution. The word is found three other times, Exodus 34:22 ; 1 Samuel 1:20 ; Psalms 19:7 . The versions, of course, express correctly what is meant, but probably the season of spring is also conveyed ( 2 Samuel 11:1 ; 1 Chronicles 20:1 ). The host of Syria .

Divine retributions; or, the predictions and prayers of a dying mar, coming true. I. JUDAH INVADED BY THE SYRIANS . ( 2 Chronicles 24:23 .) Zechariah had predicted that prosperity should no longer attend Judah in consequence of her apostasy from Jehovah (verse 20); and, before breathing his last, had prayed, and so practically predicted ( James 5:16 ), that Jehovah would avenge his murder upon the king, his princes, and people (verse 22).
